CHIA seeds

My new fascination are Chia seeds. Firstly when I heard of them I got interested because they are supposed to help you get rid of toxins in your body and are full of important omega 3 fatty acids. But I became apprehensive when I understood that they become gel-like when you put them in water.

So when I first time tried them I put them to water and drank it as fast as possible :D, just to be sure I don't have to chew through gel like seeds. Already that same night I tried the gel and it was OK - not much taste, but nice crunchy (sesame seed like).

Now one of my favorite desserts is Chia seeds with cocoa powder and raspberries, blueberries etc. - delicious! Look in the recipes section. Also read more information on Chia seeds and go to your health store to get them. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Salvia_hispanica

Intro

Lately I've become obsessed with relearning and changing my knowledge of food and what really means healthy eating FOR ME. And not only what is healthy, but tasty and/or even delicious. So after talking about the info I've found to my friends, I've found that there are people around me who are also looking for new or forgotten old secrets of food and there are people who are not ready to become responsible for their health and not looking for information. Therefore I'm starting this blog to give info to people who think like me and are looking for information on food. So this is my blog, these are my thoughts and my personal likes and dislikes. If these thoughts are not what you know to be real, you are welcomed to write to me e.elbra@gmail.com AND even better if you share my thoughts and know info I should become aware of PLEASE let me know!!
