Chia Seeds – Tiny Powerhouse Fueling HealthyCrave Goodness
🌾 What Are Chia Seeds?
Tiny Seeds. Massive Nutrition.
Chia seeds are edible seeds from the Salvia hispanica plant — a superfood revered by the ancient Aztecs and now popular worldwide. At HealthyCrave Cuisine, we include chia seeds in our recipes for their incredible fiber, omega-3, and hydration benefits. They absorb liquid, swell, and form a gel — adding texture, satiety, and nutritional depth to our snacks.
