Chia Seeds (Soaked)
Soaked chia seeds are a hydrating, nutrient-packed food used in puddings, smoothies, and beverages or as a topping for oatmeal and salads. They are an excellent source of omega-3 fatty acids, fiber, plant-based protein, and essential minerals. Soaking chia seeds enhances digestibility and creates a gel-like consistency that is ideal for various recipes.
