Welcome!
Hey there! And welcome to Healthy Gut Foodie!
Healthy Gut Foodie is all about sharing delicious gut friendly recipes by using only gut friendly ingredients. No matter what dietary restriction or choice you follow, there will certainly be a recipe for you. Or if you’re looking for a gut-friendly version of your favorite food, you may find it here as well!
All of our recipes focus on providing one or both of the following:
- Probiotic foods
- Prebiotic foods
And we have an absolute focus on using ingredients that are:
- whole foods, mostly plant-based
- healthy fats/oils
- low/no sugar
Gut Friendly Ingredients Only
And of course, we always opt for gut-friendly substitutes, and explain the reasoning behind them. For example, some of the substitutions that you may spot in our recipes are:
- unsweetened almond milk instead of regular cow milk because it's dairy-free
- coconut aminos instead of soy sauce because it's gluten-free and low sodium
- tapioca flour/coconut flour instead of regular flour because it's gluten-free
- quinoa instead of white rice because it's gluten-free and has complex carbs
- and many more!!!
