Looking for a delicious and nutritious snack to pack in your child’s lunchbox? Look no further than these Mango Chia Gummies! Bursting with tropical mango flavor and packed with the goodness of chia seeds, these gummies are the ultimate treat for your little one (and even for you). Made with grass-fed, grass-finished gelatin, these gummies not only taste great but are also a nourishing addition to any lunchbox, helping to fuel the rest of the day with vitamins, minerals, and a natural energy boost.

Let’s explore why these Mango Chia Gummies are the perfect snack for school lunches, and how they stand out from other pre-packaged treats.

Why Choose Grass-Fed, Grass-Finished Gelatin?

Gelatin is what gives gummies their signature chewy texture, but not all gelatins are created equal. By choosing grass-fed, grass-finished gelatin, you’re opting for a cleaner, more sustainable option. This type of gelatin comes from animals raised on a natural, grass-based diet, free from hormones, antibiotics, and grains. It’s not just an ethical choice—it’s also a healthier one.

Grass-fed gelatin is rich in collagen, a powerful protein that supports joint health, promotes glowing skin, and even helps improve gut health. Since kids are growing fast, adding this kind of gelatin to their diet can help support their developing bodies in a natural and wholesome way.

The Health Benefits of Mango Chia Gummies

These Mango Chia Gummies aren’t just fun to eat—they’re full of nutrients that will benefit your child’s health:

• Mango: A naturally sweet fruit, mango is packed with vitamins A and C, both of which support a strong immune system, healthy skin, and good vision. Mango is also a great source of antioxidants, which help fight off free radicals and promote digestive health.

• Chia Seeds: These tiny seeds are a powerhouse of fiber, omega-3 fatty acids, and antioxidants. Chia seeds help to support a healthy heart, regulate blood sugar levels, and aid in digestion. Plus, they absorb liquid and expand, adding to the satisfying texture of these gummies.

• Grass-Fed Gelatin: The collagen in gelatin is essential for healthy growth, supporting bones, joints, skin, and hair. It’s a great way to give your child’s body the building blocks it needs for overall health and well-being.

• Natural Sweeteners: Instead of refined sugar, these gummies are sweetened with natural options like honey or maple syrup. You can rest easy knowing that your child is enjoying a treat that’s made with wholesome ingredients.

A Simple Recipe for Mango Chia Gummies

Making Mango Chia Gummies at home is easy, and it’s a great way to ensure your child’s lunchbox is filled with healthy, clean snacks. Here’s a quick and simple recipe to get you started:

Ingredients:

• 1 cup mango puree (fresh or frozen)
• 2 tbsp chia seeds
• 2 tbsp honey or maple syrup (optional, for sweetness)
• 1/2 cup water or coconut water
• 1/4 cup grass-fed, grass-finished gelatin
• 1/2 tsp lemon juice (optional, for added tang)

Instructions:

1. Prepare the Mango Puree: If you're using fresh mango, peel and chop it, then blend it into a smooth puree. If using frozen mango, simply thaw and blend.

2. Heat the Mango Mixture: In a small saucepan, gently warm the mango puree over low heat. Stir in honey or maple syrup, lemon juice (if using).

3. Add the Gelatin: In a separate bowl, sprinkle the gelatin over 1/2 cup of cold water and allow it to bloom for 5 minutes. Then, stir the gelatin mixture into the warm mango mixture until fully dissolved and the texture thickens.

4. Mold the Gummies: Pour the mixture into silicone molds or a small baking dish (our silicone rectangle lunchbox is perfect for this). Refrigerate for 2-3 hours, or until the gummies are firm.

5. Store and Pack: Once set, pop the gummies out of the molds and store them in an airtight container in the fridge. These homemade gummies will last for up to a week, so you can easily make a batch and pack them in lunchboxes for several days.

Why Make Your Own Gummies?

Making your own Mango Chia Gummies is a great way to take control over what goes into your child’s snacks. Unlike store-bought gummies, which are often filled with added sugars, artificial colors, and preservatives, homemade gummies allow you to use wholesome, natural ingredients.

These gummies are not only customizable, but you can adjust the sweetness level to suit your preferences and even add extra superfoods or vitamins. It’s a fun, hands-on way to ensure your child is getting a healthy, nutrient-packed snack each day.
