But first we must cover lunch. 🙂
Tuesday Lunch
Today’s mid-day meal included a big ol’ salad, composed of:
- Butter lettuce
- Celery
- Tomatoes
- Carrots
- Leftover sausage
- Balsamic vinaigrette dressing
Gettin' Mah Veggies!
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.
Chia!
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!
Bag of Seeds!
I received a bag of their seeds and have really enjoyed using them in my overnight oats…
Overnight Oats
Chocolate Chia Seed Pudding
Bagelwich
And coconut granola!
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 ever since I saw them on your blog. I love flax seeds, but they tend to make everything kind of gummy once they absorb liquid, which can be…strange.
I’ve yet to try a bagelwich; gluten-free bagels are REALLY high in calories, and big too (at least the ones that taste best do). I’m trying to find a healthier, tasty version, so my quest continues…
As a fellow smoothie addict – I think that chia seeds would be a great addition to my morning ritual (plain Greek yogurt, spinach, lots of fruit, and a bit of orange juice). Also – I think I would really like to try it in my yogurts, as I also want crunch in everything! Thanks!
I love chia seeds in my yogurt! If you let them sit, they thicken it up. Yum 🙂

I’ve never tried chia seeds before, but that pudding looks awesome!–definitely what i’d try first!
I use Chia seeds almost everyday and I actually just finished the last of them! I love it the best in my oatmeal – either hot or overnight oats. I’d like to try that chocolate chia pudding though, that’s next on my list.
I would try and make the chocolate pudding for sure! I’ve never had chia seeds before but am always up for trying new things!
I would use them to help thicken up my Vegan Overnight Oats since I can’t eat dairy anymore!
Because I have never had them before!!!
I want to try thickening up one of my favorite meals….chocolate prot. powder, old fashion oats, scoop of peanut butter!
Thanks 🙂

Hi Julie! I love love love chia seeds in smoothies as a natural thickener. I prepare my smoothie the night before with chia seeds, then in the morning blend with ice and it is a thick, scrumptous smoothie.
