Jump to Recipe

I’ve been working on a recipe thats been a game changer for gut healing. This dish focuses on nourishing your system with high quality, natural ingredients that support a Healthy Gut Diet.

I start this recipe by simmering 2 cups of homemade chicken bone broth with a scoop of collagen peptides to boost joint and skin nutrition. Then I add 2 minced garlic cloves, 1-inch grated ginger, and 1/2 tsp turmeric powder, all known for their anti-inflammatory properties.

I toss in 2 diced carrots and 2 cups chopped spinach to deliver an easy dose of fiber and vitamins, and I stir in 1/2 cup fermented sauerkraut as a source of probiotics that work wonders for a Leaky Gut Diet. Once the broth cools a bit, I mix in 1 diced avocado and finish off with extra virgin olive oil, lemon juice, raw apple cider vinegar, sea salt, and black pepper.

This is a Healing Food meal that helps rebuild your microbiome and boosts overall health.

What To Eat When Healing Your Gut Recipe Substitutions and Variations

Homemade chicken bone broth: try using a good quality vegetable broth if you are vegetarian or simply want a change in flavor.
Collagen peptides: you can swap them for gelatin dissolved in water, which is a good alternative that still helps your gut.
Fresh spinach: if you cant find any, kale or swiss chard works just as well and gives you a similar nutrient boost.
Fermented sauerkraut: you can substitute with kimchi if you prefer a different twist on probiotics and flavor.
Extra virgin olive oil: if youre out, avocado oil is another healthy option that brings a mild taste and extra goodness.

Pro Tips

1. Try warming up your garlic, ginger and turmeric in the broth a bit longer to really bring out their flavors before adding the veggies, its like giving them a little head start.
2. Don’t mix in the sauerkraut and avocado while the soup’s still really hot because that might kill some of their good probiotics and make the avocado mushy.
3. Stir in the collagen peptides slowly and make sure they dissolve completely so you avoid any weird lumps in your soup.
4. If you find the soup a bit too thick or intense, splash in a little extra lemon juice or apple cider vinegar at the end to brighten it up and balance the flavors.
