How to use Chia Seeds

Sprinkle on your buckinis or add to smoothies for a protein boost. Alternatively, in water, fruit juice or nut milk before mixing with nuts and berries to make a delicious chia porridge or pudding.

You can also add a tablespoon of Chia Seeds as a healthy topping for desserts or yogurt. They're also great to add flavour, crunch and variety to your puddings and breads.

Chia Seeds can be used as an egg replacement – great for vegan baking. Simply mix with water to form a gel to use in recipes that require eggs.

Make sure you drink plenty of water when consuming Chia Seeds, as they are high in dietary fibre.

Health benefits of Chia Seeds

More than half of Chia’s fat content is ALA (a-Linolenic acid), making it one of the highest known plant sources of Omega 3.

Omega 3 is critical for our body to function at optimum levels. It cannot be synthesised by the human body but is vital for normal metabolism.
