Three cheers for CHIA SEEDS… We love them!
One tablespoon of Chia Seeds contains more calcium than a glass of milk!
We have made Chia Seed Porridge and Chia Strawberry Jam (recipe coming next week) plus we use chia seeds in smoothies, juices, on cereal, stirfries and also in this weeks recipe for chickpea and feta fritters… AND you can also sprout them or use as a replacement for eggs in most recipes!
These tiny seeds are little nutritional powerhouses. 28 grams of Chia Seeds contain
Fibre: 11 grams.
Protein: 4 grams.
Fat: 9 grams (5 of which are Omega-3s).
Calcium: 18 percent of the RDA.
Manganese: 30 percent of the RDA.
Magnesium: 30 percent of the RDA.
Phosphorus: 27 percent of the RDA.
Plus a decent amount of Zinc, Vitamin B3 (Niacin), Potassium, Vitamin B1 (Thiamine) and Vitamin B2.

We hope to supply Australian grown Chia seeds soon!!

This weeks recipe coming soon… Chickpea and Feta Fritters!
Look WHAT’S NEW in our Product Range:
Organic flaxseed oil – grown and cold pressed in Australia! This is an excellent source of the omega-3, 6 and 9 essential fatty acids.
Also new are dried prunes and dried apricots.
If you haven’t eaten organic dried apricots before you will be surprised to find that without the use of sulphur dioxide (E220 or 220) which preserves the colour (and is very toxic) the apricots will be brown in colour! Our apricots are from South Australia (unlike many organic apricots which are imported from Turkey) and our prunes come from Young in NSW.

Jules is back from overseas and her stint at Fierce Grace Yoga, where she completed a 200 hour Yoga Teacher Training course.
What is Fierce Grace?
The FG system of Yoga is ideally practiced in 38 degree heat and was developed by Michelle Pernetta, who brought Bikram or Hot yoga to the UK for the first time 16 years ago.
As a quailifed teacher, Jules is now ready to launch herself into some classes, but realises the real work begins when you teach your first class. Jules is offering Zulu’s and their friends and families free YOGA over the next few weeks, so that she can practice her new craft. If you are free on any of the following days/times, then please come along for a free Yoga class at the Avoca Scout Hall:
Friday, 31 Oct: 6pm
Sat, 1 Nov: 10am
Sunday, 2 Nov: 3pm
Classes run for 90 minutes. Bring a towel and water 🙂
