Today I'm going to show you 4 chiacid recipes that helped me with weight loss and also control
my sugar cravings.
But first, I want to tell you more about chiacid.
Let's start.
If you don't know much about chiacid, let me share 3 important things about them.
Did you know that in 2 tablespoons of chiacid, you've got 11 grams of fiber and only 1 gram
of net carbs?
Eating fiber is very good for your health because it keeps you full for hours.
And if you eat at least 30 grams of fiber per day, it will help you with weight loss.
So by eating 2 tablespoons of chiacid every day, you bring 11 grams of fiber to your body
that helps with your digestion, but also prevents blood sugar spikes, which means less sugar
cravings.
Next, chiacid are a very good source of healthy fats as well, with 9 grams of fat in 2 tablespoons.
They help you reach your fat macro on a low-carb diet and bring all the good omega-3 and omega-6
for your brain and body.
Finally, they are packed with protein, with 4.7 grams in 2 tablespoons, which is also
very fulfilling and makes you eat less during the day.
First, let's make chiacid pudding.
This is a great breakfast that you can serve with any berries, yogurt, matcha powder or
cocoa powder to add some flavor.
A serving contains 210 kilocalories, 14 grams of healthy fats, 12 grams of fiber to keep
you full for hours, 3.6 grams of net carbs and a bunch of 7 grams of protein.
You can also serve this chia pudding as a dessert any time of the day or as a fulfilling
snack after a workout.
Now let's make chiacid jam.
This is perfect for spreading on toast or for adding on top of your plain Greek yogurt.
2 tablespoons of this chiacid jam contain only 16 kilocalories.
You've got about 60 kilocalories in regular jam.
And this chia jam only gets 4.7 grams of sugar, which is 10 times less sugar than your regular
jam.
So it's the perfect jam if you want to cut down on sugar and eat something fulfilling
as well, packed with 1.6 grams of fiber.
So this is the best jam substitute if you want something healthy or cut down the sugar
or if you are on a low-carb diet.
Next we're going to make ground chia pudding.
If you don't really like the texture of chiacid, grinding the chiacid into a powder to make
a sort of mousse or pudding is the best way to enjoy chiacid.
This is a great dessert.
It has almost the same kilocalories as a chocolate pudding with 200 kilocalories per serve.
But this small jar is packed with 20 grams of protein and it's so fulfilling with only
5 grams of net carbs.
Finally, let's make chia fresca.
This drink is refreshing, flavorful, perfect to drink in the morning to start the day with
some fiber, protein and all the nutrients you need.
It has 2 grams of protein and 4 grams of fiber with only 2.8 grams of net carbs.
