You remember Chia Pets, the pottery that grows, right? Well, chia seeds aren’t just for smearing onto your favorite terra cotta character any more. They’re actually edible and really healthy for you.
They provide tons of protein, fiber and are a great source of essential fatty acids. Chia seeds are an especially good source of Omega-3 and provide the highest level of this essential fatty acid of any vegetarian source. Plus, eating chia seeds gives you extra energy and stamina. In fact, ancient Aztec runners used to carry pocketfuls of chia seeds to keep them going on long hauls.
One of my favorite recipes with chia seeds is my Chia Tapioca Pudding. Here’s a video of me making it with two of the incredible women from my “Powerful Woman Powwow” Program, Katherine Deva and Angela Minelli.
This recipe is “raw”, has zero dairy or sugar and is sweetened instead with all-natural stevia, a calorie-free herb that has no impact on glycemic levels. This recipe even helps you to lose weight!
And, because it has so few ingredients, Chia Tapioca Pudding takes less than 15 minutes to make and is a quick, delicious treat that’ll boost your energy, increase your stamina and stockpile your system with Omega-3’s and other essential fatty acids. Check out the video then try the recipe for yourself. What’s not to love?
