As one of the most nutrient-dense foods on the market, why not include chia seeds in what we consider the most important meal of the day? After all\u2026\u201cchia\u201d does mean strength. Starting your day with a delicious and nutritious bowl of chia overnight oats fueled with almond milk, dried tart cranberries, and fresh fruit is bound to keep you energized until lunchtime.<\/p>\n

Superfood chai seeds<\/h2>\n

These tiny little powerhouses of nutrition are loaded with omega-3 fatty acids, carbohydrates, protein, fiber, antioxidants, calcium, and lots of other micronutrients.
\nNot only do chia seeds provide tons of nourishment, but they also absorb thirty times their weight in water, which helps regulate body fluid levels and retain electrolytes. This, along with their high fiber and protein content, helps control your appetite by making you feel fuller faster and longer.<\/p>\n

As a delicious breakfast idea, I love overnight oats topped with anything from chopped nuts, fresh fruit or even raw cocoa nibs. What\u2019s so great about making something like overnight oats is, besides being a godsend when you have a busy morning, is that you can either eat it cold or warm.<\/p>\n

Sometimes if I am in a real rush, I just prepare my chia overnight oats in a glass jar or container and then in the morning, I top it with some fresh fruit and a few nuts before I race off to work. It makes the perfect breakfast-to-go — one you can happily enjoy while sitting at your desk getting a head start on the day.<\/p>\n

Why soak your oats?<\/h2>\n

In a nutshell, the process<\/a> of soaking grains, also known as \u201cculturing\u201d, helps breakdown the hard-to-digest components of grains (the phytic acid in their outside layers which inhibits certain enzymes), which aids absorption and at the same time it also improves the grains nutrition by helping release its highly beneficial nutrients.<\/p>\n

Soaking grains is very easy! It just takes a little planning ahead.<\/p>\n

Soaking chia seeds together with overnight oats makes for a hydrating breakfast porridge that\u2019s great for any busy morning. Top with fresh fruit for an extra dose of vitamins and H20.<\/p>\n

The result is a highly nutritious and easy-to-digest breakfast with a wonderful flavor. Enjoy!<\/p>\n
