Easy Chia Pudding
the most underrated (and easy) meal prepped breakfast!
Chia pudding…
Some of us hear that and think - YUCK. Well I am here to change your mind when you try this recipe! It’s the perfect consistency and flavor with the coconut milk, sweetener and vanilla.
Let me tell you all the benefits of chia seeds…
high in antioxidants
great for our skin
promotes digestion
helps keep you full
high in omega 3’s
helps reduce inflammation
In 2 tablespoons you have 4g of protein and 11g of fiber!
Here’s the cool thing about chia seeds…
When you mix then with liquid they expand! This is what they look like after just 10 minutes…
To prepare them, you just mix dry chia seeds with liquid of choice (this can be water, milk, plant milk, juice etc.). Then mix it really well to remove any clumps.
Let it sit in the fridge for 10 minutes, then you’ll have a really thick pudding consistency!
But it doesn’t stop there! You can add any flavorings of choice. Here are some of my favorites:
Lemon blueberry
Chocolate raspberry
Peanut butter and jelly
Tropical pineapple
Cinnamon vanilla
Matcha strawberry
Do any of these flavors stick out to you?
In the recipe below, I teach you how to make a simple and delicious chia pudding base. Then you can up the flavor profile by adding these different additions to make it even more fun!
You can let me know in the comments below if there’s a specific recipe flavor you want to see! I can make it in an upcoming recipe right here on Substack!
