Chia pudding for breakfast
Who says you can’t have chocolate for breakfast? If you’re new to chia seeds and want to incorporate them into your diet this is a great way to start. The chia seeds soak up all the liquids and create this gelatinous texture that is similar to tapioca pudding. Not only is chia pudding delicious, it’s also a great source of protein, omega-3, and fiber!
Great for meal prep
The best part is you can make them the night before or even days in advance. They’re a perfect way to start the day and even great as a mid-afternoon snack or healthy dessert.
