I recently bought some chia seeds, and now I'm just not sure what to do with them. Can anyone help?

    My husband has a small scoop of chia seeds in his oatmeal every morning.

    I put it in my smoothies or sprinkle it on a salad.

    I am actually eating them in my salad right now. I put them in dry but am drinking a full glass of water with my salad. Chia seeds absorb water and sort of plump up after a little while. If you take them dry, they could actually remove hydration in your stomach. You could also put them in water and put them in the fridge and take 3 tablespoons of them each day after they have plumped up. They are very good for you.

    I had a friend telling me about these in the gym a few months ago. Never looked into them though.


    Worth the money?

    I add chia seeds or ground flaxseed to my oatmeal, yogurt, and smoothies. You can also add it to pancakes, muffins, etc.
