Chia seed cereal

I decided to post the other chia-based food that we love and eat every day. This cereal was inspired by a chia cereal that I found at Costco. My Costco discontinued it so I developed a delicious replacement. I don't mix a big batch of the ingredients together because I like to keep the ingredients at the exact amounts that I like. By using only a tsp of the high-carb buckwheat groats it just adds 2 carb but a lot of nice texture. The tsp of cranberries or raisins are just adding 2 or 3 carbs but add a yummy treat to the cereal. I have a chia cereal bar on my counter, so it is very fast to add the ingredients to a bowl, stir in the milk, and let it hydrate for about 20 minutes while I make the rest of our breakfast.

I love everything in this blog!
I make the Chia cereal but I make up 5 baggies at a time.
I put everything in except the Stevia, vanilla and milk. I pour the baggie into a bowl add the Stevia, vanilla and milk and let it sit in the refrigerator for 15 to 20 mins. until the chia is hydrated.
