When I was presented with the opportunity to try out Lifeway Kefir I knew right away that I wanted to create something that highlighted my favorite dip – Tzatziki! Staying true to my “creative culinary collision concepts” I thought it would be fun to turn that delicious Tzatziki dip into warm, fluffy, tender, and scrumptious biscuits!

And not just any biscuits, I’m talking about DROP biscuits – aka. easy!

Here are some of the amazing benefits of Lifeway Probiotic Kefir!

PROBIOTICS

Probiotics are live microorganisms that may provide health benefits when consumed in adequate amounts. The benefits of these good bacteria may include supporting immunity and a healthy digestive system.

IMMUNITY

The probiotics in kefir may help support a healthy gut, where 70-80 percent of the cells that make up the immune system are located.

The World of Lifeway

At Lifeway Foods, we are on a mission. A mission that started in 1986 when we first began producing Lifeway Kefir.

Like all good missions, ours is simply expressed: We’re here to provide the best in probiotic and nutritious foods. We’re here to improve the health of our customers. And we’re here to leave the world a better place than we found it.

On a lighter note, we’re also here to change the meaning of the word delicious, and to have a little fun along the way. You with us? Good. Very good.

THE LIFEWAY STORY

FROM THE BASEMENT TO NASDAQ

The Lifeway story begins in 1986, when Russian immigrants Michael and Ludmila Smolyansky began making Kefir in the basement of their Skokie, IL home. The cultured dairy drink had been popular in Eastern Europe for centuries, but the Smolyansky family was determined to share their delicious health secret with their newfound home. Two years later, they took the company public and it debuted on the NASDAQ exchange under the ticker symbol LWAY.
