Objectives: This study was performed to find out the effect of omega 3 on the quality of chia seeds (CS) , flax seeds (FS) and walnuts (WN) powder were incorporated in pasta. Material and Methods: Three different types of omega 3 enriched foods such as chia seeds, flax seeds and walnuts each at 0.5,1,1.5 and 2 percentage were added and analyzed their phys iochemical, Nutritive value, Organoleptic parameters of omega 3 enrich chia seeds (CS),Flax Seed (FS) and Walnut(WN) incorporated pasta Result: The Colour, cooking time, water absorption and volume expansion of (CS) and (FS) increased (P<0.05) with the percentage is increased and except the swelling index for (WN) pasta .Most of the nutritive value such as energy, protein, fat, fiber, Zinc, calcium, phosphorus. vitamin A, Thiamin, Riboflavin, Niacin, vitamin C, Iron, Folic acid, Sodium are increased with increased percentage of omega 3 (CS),(FS) and (WN) enrich pasta .The omega 3 (ALA) were increased with increased percentage . The taste, appearance, flavor , colour and The overall acceptability were Slightly decreased with increased percentage (P>0.05) Conclusion: Hence, omega 3 enrich pasta with majority desirable characteristic from (CS),(FS) and (WN) powder, it is recommended that the 2 percentage of incorporated (CS),(FS) and (WN) in the formulation of omega 3 pasta
