I bought chia seeds recently... have to be honest just because they were on special. I heard of them before but never tasted it or even attempted to make it.  So I gave it a try, and I must admit... I am loving it. Made some, left it in the fridge overnight and took it to work for lunch the next day. Its quick and easy, and can be prepared in advance. No cooking required.

I am loving it. Made some, left it in the fridge overnight and took it to work for lunch the next day. Its quick and easy, and can be prepared in advance. No cooking required.

Chia seeds are quite the super food and makes a perfect addition to the low carb diet because they are all fiber.  These seeds help control blood sugar levels and they are packed with omega-3 fatty acids. 

Makes 1 serving

Ingredients:

1 1/2 Tablespoons of chia seeds

1/2 Cup of unsweetened coconut milk

2 Tablespoons of fresh cream

1 Teaspoon Vanilla essence

Pinch of salt

Cinnamon to taste

Stevia to taste

Directions:

Mix all ingredients in a glass jar until well combined.

Let it sit for a few minutes and then stir it again.

* Note, some chia seeds absorbs more liquids than other. If needed, add a bit more coconut or almond milk
