Chia Seeds
Chia seeds are the ultimate powerhouse seed, in my opinon! I had a few weeks of travel and stress from my wedding and honeymoon, and my gut was very upset with me. I started looking up what I could do with my diet to help my gut and chia seeds popped up every time!
Chia seeds can act as a prebiotic to help the good bacteria in your gut! I love to add them to smoothies, yogurt, or granola!

Equipment
Spatula - This one is kind of a personal preference, but I love to use a spatula to mix the chia seeds because it helps scrape down the edges of the bowl. Sometimes if you leave chia seeds on the edge of the bowl or glass, they can harden and take quite a bit of scrubbing to get clean!
Top tip
Use a yogurt that you like the flavor of! Instead of using plain yogurt, try out a vanilla or strawberry to infuse your chia seeds with!
Storage
- Refrigerator - Cover and store in an airtight container for about 2-3 days!
FAQ
Yes! You can use whatever your favorite yogurt is! I recommend picking a yogurt you would eat all by itself!
