Chia seeds are a nutritious and versatile super food that is rich in omega-3 fatty acids, protein, minerals and antioxidants.
These little seeds were once a staple of the Incan, Mayan and Aztec cultures. "Chia" is actually the Mayan word for strength. The seeds were used by the ancient cultures as a super-energy food, especially for their running messengers.
Sprinkle Chia seeds on salads, cereals, yogurt, even soup. Or add a sprinkling in your baking - great in bread, cakes, cookies and muffins.
A common way to consume Chia Seeds is to make them into a delicious Chia Seed pudding by soaking with coconut milk and agave syrup.

Allergen info is incorrect
Can't review this as the allergen info is incorrect and we can't eat it. The box actually says that the seeds may contain nuts, peanuts and sesame.

Expensive but worth it
Nice addition to cereal. No real flavour as such so doesn't ruin your breakfast cereal. Very versatile as can be added to many foods.

delicious
First time I've tried chia seeds and they're lovely and healthy on cereal. Even my fussy toddler loves them.

lovely addition to vegan breakfast
I tried these as part of a vegan challenge and wasn't knocked out, until I soaked them in almond milk and added some cinnamon for a cold porridge recipe. They were absolutely gorgeous!
