Chia seeds have been a staple in the diets of Central and South American cultures for centuries. These tiny seeds are packed with nutrients, including protein, fiber, and healthy fats. They're also a good source of antioxidants and minerals.
In recent years, chia seeds have become increasingly popular as a health food. They're often used in smoothies, oatmeal, and other breakfast foods. Chia seeds can also be used to make puddings, which are a great way to get a healthy dose of nutrients in a delicious and easy-to-digest form.
This Emerald Isle Chia Seed Pudding is a variation on the classic chia seed pudding recipe. It gets its vibrant green color from frozen spinach, which is a good source of vitamins A, C, and K. The pudding is also flavored with vanilla extract and cinnamon, which add a touch of sweetness and warmth.
This pudding is a great way to start your day or enjoy as a healthy snack. It's also a great way to get your kids to eat their vegetables!
