Easy chia pudding

There are some things I make weekly just to have for quick meals and snacks and one of them is CHIA PUDDING !

Chia pudding is a go-to for me because it’s incredibly easy to make, you can prep it in batches and can add just about anything to it. For me, it’s like the cold version of oatmeal and I’m here for it!

Personally, I think chia seeds are one of those foods that everyone can benefit from enjoying. They’re a good source of plant-based protein, contain omega 3s, they’re a true mineral POWERHOUSE & a good source of selenium to support thyroid levels, + they contain antioxidants and compounds like quercetin that helps lower inflammation and mediate histamine responses.

Honestly I could go on, but I think you get the point - they’re tasty, versatile, and incredibly healthful.

i’m not going to pretend that I’m the first one to come up with chia pudding, but here’s the recipe I use to enjoy one of my favorite weekly meals!

Chia pudding
1/4cup organic chia seeds
1 cup plant-based milk of choice, try full-fat coconut milk for a super creamy option.
Add chia & milk to a jar, mix and let set overnight or for ~30-60 minutes stirring as needed. Add your favorite toppings & enjoy!

I usually mix in raw honey or organic maple syrup, a sprinkle of unsweetened coconut shreds, cacao nibs + sliced kiwi (highly underrated fruit IMO), or other fruit to top it off! Feel free to add your favorite granola or nut butter as well for a fun texture and added healthy fats.
