Chia Seed Pudding: An amazing superfood

Picture
Have you heard of or tried chia seeds yet? Chia seeds are a superfood (one of the most nutrient dense foods) and contain lots of beneficial vitamins and minerals.  You can add them to smoothies, granola bars, salads, use as an egg replacer or make a delicious pudding with them. Chia seeds are rich in antioxidants and contain calcium, iron, fiber, protein, vitamin c, potassium and omega 3's.  They are from the Salvia Hispanica plant which is a member of the mint family.  When added to liquid they expand and create a gel like consistency.  I love making chia seed pudding as a breakfast or for an energy boosting snack. There are so many ways to customize the pudding, by adding your favorite flavors and toppings.  Try it today to get the wonderful benefits of this amazing superfood!  
Check out my Chia Seed Pudding video presentation which was part of Green Our Planet's Virtual Academy summer edition.  In my work as a Nutrition Chef with Green Our Planet, I teach students how to use produce that is growing in their school garden and the benefits of eating healthy. As schools were shut down due to COVID-19, this academy was created to continue to deliver garden and nutrition lessons to students.
