Chia seeds are packed with protein and fiber, and this easy recipe is simple to whip at night for a quick and nutrient packed breakfast the next morning. The taste and texture of chia pudding can seem a little unusual at first, but mild enough to enjoy with a little sweetness and topped with fresh fruit.
INGREDIENTS
1/4 cup chia seeds
1 cup almond milk (or coconut milk)
1 teaspoon honey (or more to taste)
Dash of cinnamon
Fruit and/or nuts for topping
INSTRUCTIONS
Whisk together chia seeds, milk, honey and cinnamon until well combined. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight. Top with your favorite fruit and/or nuts for added protein and enjoy!
I’ve topped my chia pudding with starfruit and pomegranate seeds, but fresh berries or diced melon are also good options. When cold and flu viruses are running rampant this time of year, it is extra important to keep your nutritional status high to ensure your immune system is up to any challenge it may be facing right now!
Stay healthy!
