Omega-3 fatty acids and fiber are the superstars of
cardiovascular health, and chia seeds contain them both in spades.
They're also great sources of iron, calcium, magnesium, and zinc,
and have been linked to better cholesterol, triglycerides, and
blood pressure levels. It's no wonder they've been a staple in
Central American diets since the Aztecs, and are once again growing
in popularity. Chia is truly a superfood, both nutritious and
versatile. Both the seeds and sprouts are edible, but there's so
much more to chia than that!
Cooking With Chia For Dummies explores the benefits and
many uses of the chia seed, and guides you through a multitude of
ways to add chia to your diet. Featuring over 125 recipes, you'll
learn how to choose among the different types of chia options, how
to use and how to use it, and exactly how much you need to reap the
health benefits.
* Camouflage your chia or make it the star of the dish
* Incorporate chia into your favorite meal
* Adapt the recipes to be vegan, vegetarian, or gluten-free
* Discover chia recipes that even kids will eat
Learn why you shouldn't harvest the sprouts from your Chia pet,
and where to buy high-quality seeds to eat. Chia is already fueling
endurance athletes and is beloved by dietitians. You deserve to
feel great, and there's no reason your taste buds should suffer for
it. Chia is a delicious addition to any meal, and there's no reason
for you to miss out. Cooking With Chia For Dummies is your
comprehensive guide to adding chia to your diet, and your companion
on the journey to ultimate health.
