What the heck are chia seeds anyway? Chia seeds are one of the healthiest foods on the planet! They are a tiny black seeds from the Salvia Hispanics plant, which is part of the mint family. The word “chia” means strength in ancient Mayan.
These seeds are a powerhouse packed full of vitamins. One ounce (2 tbsp.) contains fiber, protein, healthy fats, calcium, manganese, magnesium, phosphorous, and some zinc, vitamin B3, Potassium, Vitamin B1, and Vitamin B2. I would say that is quit a lot of nutrition in a tiny seed!
When say good things come in small packages, I think they were talking about the Chia seed!

Purely Inspired Protein Powder
First I want to say thank you so much to Purely Inspired Nutrition for being a sponsor of the “Fit and Fabulous Mom Contest.” I reached out to them because I had bought their protein powder at the store and fell in love with it. I loved the fact that it came in 3 different flavors. I know that a plant based diet is the best for our bodies. When I went to their web site I saw all the amazing recipes that you could create from their protein powders. So above you will find my first creation. Don’t worry there will be more on the way!
What I was really excited about is that they came out with an Organic Purely Inspired Protein Powder. Doing the happy dance here!
