Chia Seed Recipes

My take on Aussie Bites™ with a little more added to them. Use a mix of chopped dried fruits such as raisins, dates, figs, cranberries, etc.

An easy way to incorporate chia seeds, these delicious cookies contain no eggs or butter and are easy to make. Cookies will be soft; allow them to cool completely.

Easy, affordable raw breakfast treat. Top with your favorite fresh fruit!

Prep these mango, honey, and chia seed oats at night and in the morning your breakfast is ready to eat--or to grab and go and eat at the office.

Great substitute for milk. In baking you can't taste the difference, and it has a pleasant taste for drinking. Cheap and good for you too!

A nice healthier pudding!

Strawberry-yogurt overnight oats! An ultimate healthy pre-planned breakfast that is packed with fiber and protein. Garnish with granola, World of Chia Fruit Spread flavor, or fresh berries.

Perfect for the lunch box, the breakfast/brunch table, or the coffee room at work. A moist muffin with the sweet burst of blueberries.

A variation from overnight oats recipe from Alli Shircliff. This is for anyone who doesn't/can't eat oatmeal but wants a delicious, fast, and healthy breakfast. This uses buckwheat flakes--not the cereal flakes but rolled and flaked buckwheat. They look very similar to oatmeal flakes but are much smaller. Mix in agave and berries. Eat and enjoy!

Don't let avocado scare you! Smooth, light sweetness and toddler-approved. I put this recipe together after experimenting with a few others.

Super healthy and deliciously soft high-fiber snack made with chia seeds, ground flax, unsweetened coconut, and oatmeal. Almond butter adds protein. I use raw honey in these.

Healthy and amazingly yummy jam! Enjoy right away or keep in airtight container for up to two weeks.

This is a very nice, light textured multigrain bread that uses many different grains and seeds and very easy to make if you have a food processor. I used my Ninja® with the plastic blade attachment.

Give your soups, salads, yogurt, and avocado toast a crunchy, nutritional boost with this easy medley of roasted seeds. They're great to just snack on as well! Make sure all the seeds are raw, otherwise they'll burn during the cooking process.

These cookies are gluten free, dairy free, sugar free, low calorie, Paleo, vegan, and made with only 6 ingredients. Perfect post-workout snack!

No pectin is needed in this quick jam that is thickened with chia seeds. The subtle orange flavor adds a pop of brightness to the strawberries. Spread on toast, or top your yogurt or oatmeal! Keep in the fridge for up to a week, if it even lasts that long! Can be frozen, if desired.

This is a rich, moist, and delicious dessert bread, full of healthy goodness!

Allergy-friendly chocolate tapioca pudding. This is dairy-free, gluten-free, and refined sugar-free and vegan. Serve warm or chilled.

This jam is free of refined sugars and doesn't need pectin. The chia seeds help thicken the jam and it comes together quickly. Jam keeps in a tightly sealed container up to 5 days in the fridge.

A yummy vegan smoothie with mango, coconut, and vanilla.

I took my basic chocolate chip cookie recipe and packed it with super foods. You get vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants with the cocoa nibs and walnuts. Fiber, protein, and omega-3 fatty acids with the flax and chia seeds, and healthy MCT fats in the coconut oil. These cookies are an easy way to treat your kids (or yourself!) with a great tasting dessert that provides nutrition and still satisfies your sweet tooth.

I created this recipe for a bike ride from Pittsburgh to DC. This recipe should make 2 people very full, and give you the mix of carbs and protein that you need for a long day of biking or hiking. It's quick to prepare, and effortless to cook at camp. If this meal is for 1 person, just halve the recipe when packing. If packing for a multi-day trip, use a bag for each day to simplify cooking. I use a Nalgene® bottle to measure the water.

This is a great vegan dessert; chia seeds can be used to make an overnight pudding. Combined with mango puree, you'll get a healthier and yummy treat.

Banana, berries, fresh apricots, chia seeds, and protein powder blended with almondmilk make a quick and filling breakfast or snack.
