Tried these due to their reported nutritional advantage over chia seeds. They certainly bring a different experience. They are larger and crunchier, but the major difference is their flavor/taste. Should we be surprised that the seeds of a spice plant would have a distinctive smell and taste? Of course not……but subbing them for chia in oatmeal led to a “what’s that veggie taste?” revelation at first. The product is of very good quality.

I had never heard of these until a few weeks ago when I read a post from baked by Melissa. I am always looking for sources of clean, organic protein. I have to choke Chia seeds down after I soak them so I thought I would give these a try. They are honestly WAY easier to eat taste and texture wise than Chia (always soak both first). I am so grateful to have found the company that makes these and I love to support small family businesses as well! I highly recommend these.

I really like these basil seeds. They have a good taste and plump up nicely. They have more fiber and protein than chia seeds. I make a drink at night with chamomile tea one tablespoon basil seeds 3 grams curcumin powder 3 ounces coconut milk and 2 teaspoons olive oil. Warmed. Nice

I recently switched from chia seeds to these basil seeds. I like that they expand very quickly after soaking for about 5". They taste great. I put them in my oatmeal, smoothies, and make desserts with them. They are more expensive than chia seeds though. I do like the health benefits of these seeds.

I’ve been eating the same boring breakfast nearly everyday for 20 years — oatmeal with ground flaxseed meal and blueberries…and also one whole egg + extra egg whites, with arugula. Years ago I’d have a shake every morning when pressed for time.But I’ll say this much, Zen Basil Seeds has now made my usual breakfast more exiting…and for the first time in a long time, I look forward to breakfast — especially my overnight oats with Basil seeds packed inside, with fresh blueberries and chopped fresh pears.Some claim a bag of Basil Seeds is too expensive? Well I don’t. Try eating eggs daily for less money. These basil seeds are actually a great deal for great quality…and I love the texture and how it tastes too.Keep complaining 28 servings is too expensive the next time you pay $15-$20 for a burger & fries or a sushi roll that’s gone in 5 minutes, when Zen Basil Seeds can last nearly a month.I use only one heaping tablespoon per serving added to my overnight/next-day oats (from One Degree) then add blueberries and some fresh organic pear chopped up. This bowl of breakfast boasts nearly 20 grams of fiber and 10 grams of protein = my breakfast of champions that keeps me full and more than satisfied until my healthy lunch.It’s easy on the tummy and no noticeable bloating. Packed with fiber, nutrients & antioxidants, Organic Black Basil Seeds by Zen Basil is a game-changer. And I don’t profess this too often about healthy foodsSK Tips:I recently tried something new — one normal tablespoon in the evening with 1/2 coconut water & half water to sweeten it up a bit, for a basic & clean tasty dessert.I even did something I’ve never done — signed up on Amazon for Subscribe & Save 1x/month which saves $1/mo + an additional $1/mo savings with my Amazon Prime cash back rewards. It’s actually $18/mo instead of $20 and over the course of one year, it’s like getting more than a bag of Zen Basil Seeds for FREE.

This is a second time I bought this item.Obviously I really like it. Shipping was on time.

Basil seed works for inflammation. I’ve noticed a difference in my daily physical activity. It is best in a smoothie.

Great source of fiber and omega 3s! Love them in smoothies and mixed into cottage cheese.
