Start the weekend right with this delicious bowl of flavor and bliss! Manifest a powerful day with chia, an ancient superfood. These tiny seeds expand up to 10x their weight in liquid, helping you stay full and satisfied for hours. Filled with plant-based protein and fiber, they will banish bloat and aid in digestion. The cherry on top? Despite their minuscule size, chia seeds are a potent source of brain-boosting omega-3 fatty acids and loaded with various micronutrients.
