Being a vegetarian I'm always looking for ways to be healthy and get all of the micronutrients. I recently came across chia seeds, these superfoods have been everywhere recently and now I understand why. In the local supermarkets the brand The Chia Co is very common and I've always been intrigued to try them. After contacting them I received a lovely parcel with the oats and chia porridge with a bag of white chia seeds.
The porridge is flavoured with natural ingredients which keeps you satisfied, with the chia seeds you cant see or taste them in the porridge. This makes it a good way to try them for the first time. This porridge is so creamy even when you add water.
The packets are so handy as you could take them traveling with you. Its so convenient having a line on the sachet which directs you on how much water to use. I will definitely be buying some of these porridges and I cant wait to try more flavours.
In terms of nutritional value the chia seeds contain 6g fiber, 3g omega 3 and 3g protein per 1TBSP, this means that its the highest plant based source of these nutrients.
Its amazing considering the seeds are tiny! The brand is amazing too, after studying environmental science I understand the importance of sustainable farming and agriculture and after reading about this on there website I love the products even more. thechiaco- sustainable farming
