No health food aisle or clean pantry should be without chia seeds, these tiny tiny seeds pack a massive nutritional punch! Rich in Calcium, Manganese (+ other minerals), Protein, Omega 3 and Fibre – they are a little nutritional powerhouse!
Chia seeds, unlike other seeds don’t need to be crushed or activated to enjoy their health benefits – they are ready when you are! You will find black, white and even brown chia seeds and nutritionally they are all quite similar so it comes down to which you really prefer.
What I love about this recipe is that you can make it the night before OR the morning of (just give it a little bit of time to sit)!
This recipe is Gluten free, Grain free, Soy free, Wheat free, Raw, High fibre + High Protein
I N G R E D I E N T S
1/4 cup chia seeds
1 cup of milk, your choice
1 tablespoon yoghurt, optional
1 tablespoon LSA (this is crushed Linseeds, Sunflower seeds and Almonds – needs to be purchased and stored in the fridge)
Mixed nuts and seeds + seasonal fruit to serve.
M E T H O D
1. Add your chia seeds and milk into a medium glass jar, stir well and let sit for 5 minutes. Stir every now and then to mix the chia seeds. NOTE: Your chia seed pudding will start to form/swell almost instantly so be sure there is enough room in your jar.
2. a) If enjoying your chia seed pudding the next day, pop it into the fridge for when ready.
b) If having straight away, serve with LSA, Mixed nuts + seeds and top with fresh seasonal fruits.
Health and Happiness,
