Berry Chia Pudding

Ever wondered what yogi's eat for breakfast? The answer is right here! Chia seed pudding is crammed full of antioxidants, omega-3s fatty acids, calcium, and high quality proteins. All this goodness makes one of these delightful little puddings the perfect breakfast (or healthy snack!). It's super easy to make and one batch can be put in the fridge and eaten for a couple of days. You can add all your favourite toppings - when in season we love blueberries and almond.

Ingredients

1 cup chia seeds

4 cups almond milk (fresh)

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

3 pitted dates

500g Mixed Berries (frozen or fresh)

Method

Simply mix the ingredients together almond milk, vanilla, dates, and berries until smooth. Then add Chia seeds and blend together and then let them rest for a few moments. Pour into a large bowl. Stir the mixture well with a fork every five minutes or so. At first, it’ll seem far too liquidy, but over the course of thirty minutes the chia seeds will plump up, till the pudding resembles thick pudding consistency. Leave the pudding for several hours or overnight in the fridge to allow the chia seeds to fully soak and expand. The pudding can be stored in the fridge for 3-4 days. Enjoy!
