I love chia seeds- these nutrient packed nuggets are so versatile and incredibly rich in omega 3 fats, protein plus minerals including plenty of calcium and iron. I use them in so many recipes but one of the quickest is a chia pudding.

This recipe is great for detoxing and supporting gut health. I love using Pro Greens (Allergy Research) it is an amazing combination of supergreens plus probiotics.

This is a perfect speedy breakfast option – prepare it the night before then chill overnight in the fridge to thicken
