TURBO OMEGA CHIA-FLAX PORRIDGE


TURBO OMEGA CHIA-FLAX PORRIDGE

Basyk Recipe
 3 Tbsp chia seeds
1 Tbsp ground flax seed
3/4 Cup warm water
Mix the above into the warm water let sit for 3-5 minutes
so water is absorbed into seeds.
This gives you the basic chia porridge to start with

From here I go nuts by adding the following:
Tbsp hemp seeds
Handful of goji berries
Cinnamon
2-3 drops stevia or a bit of xylitol
Tsp bee pollen
3 chopped wal;nuts
3 chopped brazil nuts
Blueberries or strawberries
1 tasp tahini
1 tsp cacao nibs
1 Tbsp coconut flakes
And anything else that floats your boat.

Once you mix this all up it will be a bit thick like oatmeal add as much fresh hemp milk, almond milk or coconut milk you would like to make the texture the way you want it.
