Get your chia on!

This weird little seed isn't popular amongst most families but it should be! I wanted to share with you today ALL of the A-MAAAZING benefits of chia seeds. I also provided ideas below of how you can incorporate these in your daily diet (and even the pickiest kiddos!) for all of the health boosts.

What Are The Benefits of Chia Seeds?

  • Just one serving of organic chia seeds gives you protein, fiber, calcium, iron, zinc, phosphorus, thiamin and omega-3 fatty acids. They pack a punch!
  • The fiber in chia seeds can absorb around 12 times their weight in water, which equates to more fiber and feeling full longer! 
  • For allergen friendly baking you can sub chia seeds in for eggs! 
  • For baking, add some organic Chia Seeds into your favorite muffin recipe, or use as an egg replacement by mixing 1 Tbsp. Organic Chia Seeds with 3 Tbsp. water and let sit for 5 minutes.
  • There are 2g of protein in every serving of Organic Chia Seeds. 
  • Neutral Taste — Chia seeds are virtually tasteless and can be added to your favorite foods.
  • Super allergen and diet friendly - This omega powerhouse supports all dietary restrictions considering they are gluten-free, vegan, nut-free, raw, low-carb and paleo-friendly.

How Do We Use Chia Seeds?

  • ​For added texture and protein, add chia seeds to breakfast smoothies.
  • Add to oatmeal for a fiber boost for you or your kids. 
  • Add in juice for a tasteless, yet nutritious addition.
  • Sprinkle on yogurt, salad or cereal to up the nutrient content.

about

Nosh & Nurture was born of this journey I am on to better the health of myself, my family and those around me.  What started as a simple compilation of recipes has grown to a all-around lifestyle journal with ways to incorporate organic products into your home, pantry and beauty cabinet.  I also include stories on pregnancy, new motherhood, travel, Proverbs 31 marriage, and spiritual health, as I am a Christian who couldn't do any of this without my Lord & Savior Jesus Christ. For more of my story you can click here. 

All recipes are gluten-free and dairy-free with a lot of soy-free, grain-free, sugar-free options.
