chia

Chia seeds are well known for being a rich source of many beneficial compounds, which is why they have a solid place among the superfoods. One of their great advantages is their consistency. Though they may appear as simple and somewhat bland-looking seeds, don’t be deceived. Once they get in contact with water or other liquid, they absorb it, puff up and create a gel-like substance. Vegans love using this as a substitute for eggs. However, chia seeds are also perfect for preparing a variety of puddings and creamy smoothies. On the other hand, adding them to a bowl of salad, yoghurt or cereal, your meal obtains a brand-new dimension in terms of flavour and crunchiness.

Aside from their consistency and flavour, chia seeds have a wonderful nutritional profile. They are very rich in dietary fibre as well as protein and important omega 3 fatty acids. This makes them an amazing ingredient for an absolute load of healthy dishes.
