NEW "Chia Bread" I recently found at Cobbs Bakery ($4.20 a loaf) may be worth checking out for its nutritional value. Chia seed is considered a superfood, as it's loaded with omega -3 fats, fibre, antioxidants, protein, minerals and vitamins. Gram per gram, chia seed contains 7 x more vitamin C than oranges, 6 x more calcium than milk, 3 x more antioxidants than blueberries and 3 x more iron than spinach. Experts are also raving about the seeds ability to increase endurance, energy and assist with weight loss efforts.

My husband brought a loaf of this home from Cobbs last weekend with the info pamphlet on the Chia seed. I was amazed! The bread was absolutely delicious too.
