I have not been this excited about a cookbook in a long time! Dr. Will Bulsiewicz’s (@theguthealthmd on Instagram) Fiber Fueled Cookbook is full of delicious gut-healing recipes that are perfect for the whole family. I’ve been making this tofu feta non-stop because it’s out-of-this-world delicious and contains prebiotic compounds that help to feed our beneficial gut microbes. I love pairing it with any salad, but especially this Grain Greek Salad because it adds the perfect complimentary flavors and texture. I hope you love it as much as I do!
