But first we must cover lunch. 🙂
Today’s mid-day meal included a big ol’ salad, composed of:
- Butter lettuce
- Celery
- Tomatoes
- Carrots
- Leftover sausage
- Balsamic vinaigrette dressing
A cup of plain Greek yogurt with a scoop of grape jelly rounded out my meal.
Before moving onto the giveaway, I just wanted to let you know that the Fashion page was updated this afternoon. 🙂
Chia Seeds Giveaway
Though I only recently discovered the beauty that is chia seeds, once I tried the nutritous little seeds, I fell in love.
I fell hard and I fell fast thanks to their amazing nutritional profile (omega3s + fiber + protein + antioxidants and more!). Their fantastic crunch and ability to thicken overnight oats like nobody’s business just sealed the deal for me! Plus, they make a great addition to smoothies, cereal, granola bars, baked goods, salads, oatmeal and more!
And here’s the good news! Now you can win a two-pound bag of chia seeds from ChiaSeedsDirect.com. ChiaSeedsDirect.com is a company that solely sells chia seeds, offering high-quality chia seeds at low prices with free shipping to U.S residents!
I received a bag of their seeds and have really enjoyed using them in my overnight oats…
And coconut granola!
They’re pretty darn great.
To enter this giveaway, simply comment below, telling me one way you would like to enjoy chia seeds!
This giveaway is open to residents of the U.S. and Canada and I will randomly select a winner tomorrow afternoon.
Good luck!

I’ve been wanting to try chia seeds for so long! But college student = no money for anything unless it’s textbooks or tuition.
I can’t think of just one way to use these, I want to try them on EVERYTHING, probably most excited about a fruit and yogurt bowl though. I’m hypoglycemic and considering how protein and nutrient packed they are, it’d be the perfect thing to add to my diet.

Wowza … lots of people want the chia! (Including me!) I was also recently introduced to chia seeds; now I’m constantly adding them into ANY dish I can. I am just big on nutrition and know that these are chock full of antioxidants & goodness! Not to mention, I’m pretty cheapo so any way I can save a buck (to eat healthy is mucho expensive!) is fantastic for me! 🙂
Love,
Choose me for Chia 😉
