Chia seed coleslaw
Chia seeds have a very long list of nutritional values including helping diabetes, digestion, speeding up your metabolism, weight loss, energy boosting etc. They have a slightly nutty flavor and give the coleslaw an extra crunch but are discreet and small enough that if you wish they weren't there you barely notice them but still get all the health benefits!
