So I jumped on the Chia bandwagon and am trying it out. They’re all the rage right now and all over the internet – it’s like the new bacon or kale. You can eat it as it, hydrate it or bake with it.
Chia seeds have a bunch of health benefits too. They are full of Omega-3 fatty acids, fiber, antioxidants, calcium, protein and they are being studied to help regulate blood sugar to name a few.
I’m still on the fence about them, though. They don’t have much taste and feel like a toothy tapioca when made into a pudding. I have a whole bag so I’m definitely going to experiment some more.
