Mushroom, Chilli, Chia Fry
This fresh and healthy fry-up is ideal for breakfast, lunch or dinner served on its own or on some fresh wholegrain bread, or my favourite gluten free pumpkin bread from Zhender. The chia seeds are packed with protein, fibre and omega-3 fatty acids making this an almost entire meal, with a texture similar to poppy seeds but softer when cooked.
These measurements serve 1.
