Chia eggs another way

My sister reminded me yesterday that my diet might not include enough calcium. As such, I am going to try adding yolks to my daily regime as well as taking a supplement just to be sure I am getting enough. This is a really simple recipe that is quite nice and has a good calcium boost via the chia seeds and the yolks. I have posted about chia eggs before but this is a slightly different version. I included nigella seeds because they taste fabulous and are very good for those with mast cell issues. They are available on Amazon and are not at all expensive. 

CHIA EGGS ANOTHER WAY
25g/1tbsp chia seeds
100ml/3.4 fl oz water
33ml/1.1 fl oz coconut milk
3 egg yolks
Big pinch nigella seed
Big pinch sweet paprika
Pinch salt (if tolerated)
Fresh parsley

1. Stir all ingredients (except parsley) together until well combined
2. Leave to sit until the liquid has been absorbed by the chia seeds, stirring occasionally
3. I cooked this in a bowl set over a saucepan of boiling water, stirring until set. You could also fry it gently in a frypan. 
4. Scatter parsley over the top

Enjoy! ❤️  (and revel in the fact that you just got a calcium boost)
