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!

Your blog is awesome! I always enjoy seeing what creations you come up with. I also am a big fan of chia seeds in yogurt and on ice cream!

I am dying to try the coconut granola!! But I haven’t been able to locate chia seeds or the coconut oil, but hopefully I will track them down soon! I also really want to try making overnight oats. I have oatmeal for breakfast a lot because it’s easy to make at work, since I have to be at work for 6am, and usually don’t feel ready to eat until about 7am.
That’s easy-I’d try making some of your coconut granola! It looks soo good!
