This massive Costco bag is the right size for a chia lover like myself! Chia deserves some #veganeasychallenge love because it’s marvelously low effort — add liquid, stir to prevent clumps, and let it do its thing. The seeds are even good unhydrated, if you enjoy crunchy textures.
I usually add them to my overnight oats to achieve the perfect thickened consistency; the gel is also a fantastic egg replacer, although I personally prefer flaxseed for baked goods. Chia provided extra binding in my banana pancakes this morning! I love a good chia pudding, too, but lately I’ve also started to wonder whether the seeds might work in a savory dish. With 3lbs in my pantry, I’m sure I’ll be able to experiment plenty.

Wow! Those pancakes look so delicious 🤤! Beautiful plate! Great way to use the chia seeds!! They do become perfectly gelatinous when soaked in liquid! Will be looking for those savory dishes!!!

That whole meal looks delightful!
Ditto! Looks so gorgeous & delish! 🥞
