Chia Fresca

This traditional drink is simple, quick, and easy to incorporate into your diet.  High in protein, and a significant source of fibre, the chia fresca also contains as many omega-3 fatty acids as an entire serving of salmon.  It’s as easy as taking a multivitamin, and has almost as many benefits.

Ingredients:

Chia seeds 2 Tbsp 30 mL
Cold water 1 cup 250 mL
1 lemon, juiced 1 each 1 each
Honey, or agave nectar 1 tsp 5 mL

Directions:

  1. Juice the lemon.
  2. Stir ingredients together.
  3. Enjoy!
