Ruth's Chia Apple Almond Cinnamon cereal

I tried this cereal, Ruth’s Chia Goodness Apple Almond Cinnamon, recently and was pleased with it.  Chia is a seed which is gaining popularity and is gluten free.  It contains more than five times the calcium of milk.  It is also a good source of fiber which is good for people on a gluten free diet because many of the grains we can eat are not high in fiber. 

This cereal is good hot or cold.  The cereal gets thicker as it stands in liquid.  You add water or milk to the cereal and let it sit for 3-5 minutes and you have a nice thick and tasty cereal. 

It’s worth a try if you are looking for a new gluten free cereal.  It is available in 2 other flavors, too.  I purchased it from the Gluten-Free Mall.
