WALNUT BREAD - with chia seeds, quinoa and oatmeal

A bread that is full of proteins, vitamins and minerals. I have used walnuts today, but any kind of nuts will do. Quinoa comes in different colors. Here I have used a mix of white and black. But you can use any color. I just use what I have available.
