CHAI SPICED CHIA SEED PUDDING
“There is a fountain of youth: it is your mind, your talents, the creativity you bring to your life and the lives of people you love. When you learn to tap this source, you will truly have defeated age.” ― Sophia Loren
We couldn’t agree more, Sophia. That being said, why not help assist the anti-aging process with a superfood such as…(drum roll)... CHIA SEEDS!
Chia seeds originated in Mexico and were believed to be so valuable in nutrition that they were even used as currency. These days, the antioxidant rich seeds have become quite popular in health stores around the world. High in fibre, omega-3 essential fatty acid, and also a great source of protein, these tiny seeds pack a healthy punch to make sure you have energy to last you all day.
Try this tasty chia pudding for yourself!
