Low carb dieters will delight in these if they are trying to get more fiber in their diets and only count net grams of carbs instead of regular carbs. This is also a great recipe for those who are doing the Belly Fat Cure by Jorge Cruise as they have no sugars in them- not even for the entire recipe!
If your sick of eating chia seeds in the gel form or in dips, yogurts, and salad dressings- this might be a nice change for you. It is very easy to make and are portable once they have hardened (so long as they are not in a hot place- keep them at room temperature or cooler!)
Chia Seeds Chocolate Candies:
2 tablespoons of coconut oil
2 tablespoons of baking cocoa
2 packets of Stevita (a natural sweetener in place of sugar)
1 tsp of Torani Sugar Free Vanilla syrup
3 tablespoons of Chia seeds
2 large cupcake holders to hold candies in
Mix and microwave the first four ingredients on regular power for 1 minutes. Stir very well and heat again for another 30 seconds. Add in the Chia seeds and mix very well. Pour into two large cupcake holders and chill in the refrigerator or in a cool place for at least an hour or until hardened. Makes two candies.
