I asked for requests for my food blog and someone suggested chia seeds. I assume there's more to be done with them than using them as a smoothie booster, but I'm not really sure what else you can do with them apart from smearing them on pottery.

There are a ton of things you can cook with chia seeds, I think doing a Google search will be your best bet. Search for "chia seed recipes" – lemontwist Feb 12 at 11:01
Just for the sake of not having to click through all those links: chia seed is useful in vegan baking as a replacement for egg and to some extent gluten. – Jefromi Feb 12 at 17:32
