Emma's Postbiotic Breakfast Sandwich
![]()
Love a breakfast sandwich, me! Of course these ingredients can be flexible, but some of my top picks came together just lovely in this example.
Layer up these ingredients and pop it in the airfryer or under the grill! Here I explain why i chose them:
- Sourdough bread – rich in postbiotics like L+ lactic acid. Easier on digestion as many of the bacteria have done the hard work for us during the fermentation stages
- Black bean paste – fermented goodness! Could potentially be rich in pre, pro and postbiotics depending on the type used
- Hummus – Mostly a prebiotic option due to all the lovely plant-based ingredients, jalapeno variety for the win
- Cooked beets soaked in apple cider vinegar and sea salt – I prefer to buy plain cooked beets so I can soak them in my preferred apple cider vinegar for gut health. A gorgeous, much milder flavour and beets are great for the liver too
- Sauerkraut – the original fermented option, I love raw, spicy varieties
- Kimchi – much like sauerkraut but different varieties means different pre/pro and postbiotic benefits
- Brie – postbiotics remnants remain in soft cheeses
- Fresh basil – fresh herbs adding to my plant variety for the week. 30+ of different plants is the aim!
Enjoy the process to better gut health!
