"So, how do I eat this?"

It’s easy to incorporate more ferments in to your diet, below are some ideas to get you started:

• Sandwiches!
• BBQ, any ferment is great on top
• Tempeh with avocado and a little miso-mayo is great with kraut
• Smashed avocado with sprouts and any ferment
• Try PB&K, Peanut Butter and Kraut! Or almond butter
  

Soups and stews can benefit from the umami flavors in Kraut and Kimchi:

• At the beginning: add some kraut in with your saute before adding broth
• At the end: add a healthy dose to your soup/stew off the heat (preserve the probiotics)
• As a beautiful and delicious garnish: Pair your soup with a ¼ cup of your ferment of choice and drizzle with EVOO

Dinner Ideas

• Put Kraut or Kimchi on a taco or burrito
• Pair your favorite protein with a ¼ cup of your favorite ferment on top (think seared tuna and White Kimchi)
• Throw a healthy dose of Kimchi into a stirfry for more flavor
• Quick: Mix a ¼ cup of kimchi with organic brown rice and add a fried/poached/boiled egg on top for a satisfying but quick meal.
