Greek Yogurt with Flaxseeds, Walnuts, Fig and Pomegranate
This recipe brings together the flavours of the Mediterranean and the Atlantic for a fresh, delicious and nourishing start to the day. It is designed to take care of your prebiotics (the fibre in flaxseeds, walnuts, figs and pomegranate), your probiotics (the live cultures in yogurt and kefir), and your polyphenols (the colourful plant antioxidants that also support our gut microbes) from flaxseeds, figs and pomegranate. On top of that, it provides a generous boost of protein and fibre to keep you satisfied right through to your next meal. This recipe can also be prepped the night before.
