What I like to do with chia seeds


By Hey, that tastes good! (Visit website)



Chia seeds are magic. I've been eating them in granola, sprinkling them over salads, and like this. If you put chia seeds in water, or other delicious liquids, they gelatinize. Is that a real word? Either way, there's something special about chia seeds. They're full of omegas, antioxidants, protein, iron, fiber and calcium. I've been trying to be a little bit healthier (we'll see how that turns out), and having a snack of chia 'pudding' is much better for me than my usual snacks.

This requires nothing more than a little bit of time. No cooking, just two ingredients, what could be simpler? Let the chia sit in the liquid of your choice and it turns into a really interesting jell-o type thing.
Chia snack

1/2 c juice, soymilk, water, or liquid of your choice
optional third ingredient - honey, agave nectar, some sweetener if using milk or water

Combine ingredients. Let sit for 20 minutes or so, stirring once or twice. Eat!
