Prebiotic chocolate bark

serves 4

40mins


This recipe from Eat Yourself Healthy takes less than 5 minutes to make, and packs an extra gut-loving punch. The dried mango and pistachios are full of prebiotics, which are essentially foods that feed your beneficial microbes. The extra virgin olive oil and dark chocolate drizzle add a bonus polyphenol hit (good plant chemicals that also feed our gut microbes).
