Ingredients
- 360g Salad Potatoes
- Handful of kalamata olives
- Handful of Dill
- 2 tbsp Capers
- Handful of spring onions
- Splash of EVOO
- 4 Eggs (Optional)
- 1 tsp Dijon mustard (Optional)
- 1/2 Lemon (Optional)
Method
- Cube and boil the potatoes until fork-tender. Once cooled, these potatoes develop resistant starch, which feeds your good gut bugs. So yes, chilling your spuds is an act of digestive self-care.
- In a big bowl, throw in the cubed potatoes, olives, capers, dill and spring onions. Mix gently. Spring onions are full of prebiotics! They're like snacks for your gut microbes.
- Drizzle with EVOO, add salt and pepper to taste. EVOO isn’t just delicious, it helps reduce inflammation and keeps your gut lining happy.
- Optional - make this a main meal by adding protein like boiled eggs or even some mackerel for omega 3s! Boil eggs for 8 minutes to get the perfect consistency.
- Want to get fancy? Mix lemon juice, Dijon mustard and EVOO in a small bowl. Stir it like you mean it.
- Pour dressing over the potato mix, give it one final toss, and serve. Boom: a salad your gut will thank you for, and your taste buds won’t complain either.
