Her in all her glory! Perfect on-the-go <3

This creamy chia seed pudding is one of my go-to breakfasts when I want something simple, satisfying, and loaded with nutrients. It’s the perfect combo of healthy fats, fiber, and protein to keep you full for hours. Make it ahead for busy mornings!!

Ingredients (serves 1)

  • 2 tbsp chia seeds

  • 1/2 cup almond milk (or milk of choice)

  • 1/2 cup plain greek yogurt

    • Swap for coconut yogurt if dairy-free!

  • Dash of maple syrup, to taste

  • Splash of vanilla extract

  • Sprinkle of cinnamon

Toppings

  • Chopped dates

  • Strawberries

  • Blueberries

  • Granola

  • 1 tbsp cashew butter (or any nut butter)

  • 1 tsp hemp seeds

Directions

  1. In a jar/container — mix chia seeds, almond milk, greek yogurt, maple syrup, vanilla, and cinnamon.

  2. Stir well, cover, and refrigerate for at least 2 hours or overnight.

    1. Pro tip: mix it around after an hour or so to prevent any weird gelling!!

  3. In the morning, give it a good stir and top with chopped dates, berries, granola, nut butter, and hemp seeds.

  4. Enjoy cold and feel amazing!!

Why I love This Recipe

  • Chia seeds = rich in fiber, plant-based omega-3’s

  • Greek yogurt = protein packed

  • Nut butter + hemp seeds = heart healthy fats that keep you full

  • Berries + dates = antioxidants and natural sweetness

This recipe checks all the boxes — balanced, nourishing, and super easy to customize with toppings! You can make 2-4 at a time for quick grab-and-go meals during the week!
