Start Here: About Don't Need Much Money

Don't Need Much Money is exactly what it sounds like: a site about needing less, so you have more. More time. More freedom. More room to actually live. The idea is simple. The less money you need to survive, the more time you have to thrive. Lower your living costs, live a healthy lifestyle focused on longevity and mobility, stay out of debt, and build a little savings, and you buy yourself something far more valuable than money: time.

Avocado Toast with Hummus and Sauerkraut

This may sound like the strangest sandwich in the world but, believe it or not, it is incredible! There is something so satisfying about the addition of hummus and sauerkraut to avocado toast.

Then the sauerkraut provides that sour, vinegar flavor that pairs so well with avocado. Think of it like lime juice but a way healthier, probiotic-enriched version that also happens to bulk up the meal.

I got the tip of combining sauerkraut with avocado from the movie star, Cameron Diaz, of all people. She shared the recipe for her probiotic bowl with Blue Zones.

You have to give this sandwich a shot. It can be made so quickly and easily at home or even in a workplace break room. This sandwich might just become your new lunch-time staple like it has for me.
