Posted

With the start of the new year, many of us are excited to get back on track with nourishing routines and clean eating habits – but that doesn’t mean dishes shouldn’t be delicious, too! If you’re just getting into the groove of healthy meal prepping and time is of the essence, start with breakfast. This super quick and nutritious chia seed pudding infuses bright colors and flavors into the frigid winter days of January, as well as being a source of omega-3 and protein to jumpstart your day.

 

Chia Seed Pudding

Ingredients

• ¾ cup frozen raspberries,

   blueberries, and/or mango

• ½ cup milk of choice

• ¼ cup chia seeds (per fruit)

• ½ tsp vanilla extract

• ½ cup plain Greek yogurt

• Granola and fresh berries on top

Steps

1. Place the frozen fruit in a blender with the milk and vanilla extract. Blend on high for at least 60 seconds until the fruit is pureed.

2. Pour it into a bowl and mix it together with the chia seeds. Cover the bowl with a lid or plastic wrap and refrigerate it for at least 8 hours (overnight works great), and up to three days. If you are preparing this pudding with another fruit, repeat the process with a rinsed-out blender.

3. Divide the chia pudding between two mason jars, layering each serving with the pudding, yogurt and optional granola and/or berries. The pudding is good in the refrigerator for up to three days. Enjoy on the go!
