We paired up with registered Associate Nutritionist Séanín Smith to do a chia-tastic giveaway and she created this nutritious, simple & quick seed granola. It’s lower in sugar than your shop bought granola, high in fibre and protein. This is great for meal prepping, you can batch bake & store it for breakfasts on the go or taking it to work for a great nutritious snack.

This recipe contains:

  • Carbohydrates for slow releasing energy
  • High in fibre
  • Low in saturated fat
  • Essential omega-3 fatty acids
  • Can be adapted for coeliacs & got those who are gluten intolerant (use gluten free oats)
  • Great fuel for your brain & body
  • Oats contain beta-glucan which helps lower cholesterol & forms a gel in the gut helping you feel fuller for longer
