Chia Seed Pudding
Health Fun Fact
Chia seeds are crazy healthy! They’re a great way of getting your fibre in if you’re looking for extra ways to eat fibre (which tbh everyone should be doing), and a great source of antioxidants (antioxidants fight free radicals in the body which cause cellular damage). They’re also high in Manganese, Magnesium, protein, and Omega-3 fatty acids!
Chia seed pudding is honestly one of my favourite go-to snacks or breakfast! It’s so simple to make, super healthy, and delicious! It is a little annoying that you have to prep them the night before, but I normally prep a few jars when I’m making it so I have some in my fridge ready to go for whenever I feel like having it!
They’re also so fun and customizable! In the past I’ve added peanut butter, cacao powder, matcha powder, cinnamon, vanilla extract, maple syrup/honey… be fun and experiment with it!
