CHIA SEEDS VEGAN PUDDING

BY Jose Fuentes/Holistic Nutritionist/Blogger/Jose fit zone founder

This is one of my favorite puddings. It has enough calcium, protein, essential fats  and antioxidants. It is a shrewd way to get all the benefits of a weight loss breakfast of snack. And, most of it taste delicious!

This chia pudding could be put in reused baby food jars, small mason jars or even squeeze poaches to be included in school lunches. You can soak nuts or even chocolate or cacao for breakfast. Or delicious low sugar dessert!

Ingredients:

• 2 cups of Coconut Milk
• 1/2 cup of chia seeds
• 1/2 tea spoon vanilla extract
• 1/4 cup or less maple syrup (or sub any sweetener)
• 1/4 cinnamon powder
• Instructions:
• Place all ingredients on blender and blend on high for 2 minutes. Until completely smooth. (Include any added flavors fruit of chocolate; like shown on image)
• Pour mixture into a jar or glass container and place in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours or overnight to let gel. Stir or whisk a few times within the first hour to help it gel evenly. I like to to make this at night to have ready for a fast breakfast the next day. It is also great to make in the morning for a delicious pre-made dessert at night.
• I LIKE to  add blueberries and sliced mango for extra fiber!
