Ch-ch-ch-chia!

Phil came home from the grocery store last night with two big containers of chia seeds. The nutrition in them is ridiculous. Each little seed is a powerhouse! (Just Google it.)

This morning, I had whole wheat organic toast (not vegan, though... I would have made another loaf of my bread last night, but I was actually out of AP flour. All I have is mounds and mounds of whole wheat, haha!) with Earth Balance, peanut butter, and chia seeds. The seeds themselves are pretty tasteless so it added a fun crunch to the toast, while adding tons of protein/vitamins/omega 3's/etc. New favorite breakfast, for sure! Easy, fast, delicious, and filling.

Later, I am going to make chia crackers. They are a mixture of chia seeds, sunflower seeds, garlic, onion, water, salt... Though I'm sure I could make them into a sweet cracker, too, with some sweetzfree and cinnamon! Yum! :)
