No Eggs? No Problem!

Since we've been changing our eating habits I've begun to have some random ingredients around the house. I'll be honest, the bag of chia seeds I purchased sat in the cabinet untouched for several months before I found a purpose.
And then I ran out of eggs. 
Thanks to the good ol' interwebs I found out that that bag of odd black seeds would work as a handy substitute. 
You'll Need:
1 T chia seeds
3 T water

To Do:
Using a coffee or spice grinder (I supposed a morter and pestel would work as well), grind the seeds to a fine powder. 
In a small bowl, combine the seed powder and water and stir with a fork until well mixed.
Let sit for 10 or so minutes until thickened to a nice eggy consistency.
Use as a single egg replacement and duplicate as needed. 



See, maybe oddball ingredients aren't so bad to have on hand after all!
