Chia Seeds

We've been enjoying these easy to grow chia sprouts this winter. It's the same stuff in the chia pets. you just sprinkle the seeds onto a wet paper towel, in a pan. They stick to the towel, and twice a day you rinse the seeds, to give them water. after about a week you have sprouts! they are good on burgers, wraps...pretty much anything you'd put lettuce on. Adam and the twins love to snack on them. They are very healthy! Pam started this w/ Adam while we were on vacation. He likes to 'plant' the seeds. It's a fun thing to do this time of year when there isn't gardening to do outside.

Hi, I would like your permission to publish this photo on my website. I maintain a blog related to eating and using chia seeds, and am working on a post about sprouts.

Hope to hear from you soon.
