CHIA SEEDS!

I have seen these mentioned in all my food blogs that I stalk daily.  I couldnt take it anymore so this weekend I picked some up at whole foods.

Here are some of the incredible BENEFITS!

1. They can be mixed with water that produces a a gel that can be substituted for oil or butter when baking! WHat?!?

2. They are the richest plant source of Omega 3′s

3. They are hydrating.

4. They have fiber and keep you full longer thus helping with weight loss.

(you can put them in smoothies, make the gel and mix it in baked goods or drink it to help with endurance and hydration during intensive training etc, etc, etc…)

Stay tuned this week, I will use them in several different ways!  Cant wait :)
