I love having a quick, easy, healthy breakfast that is ready when I wake up and takes care of my sweet tooth. Chia seeds are versatile as well as a good source of omega 3s and fiber. Typically I use chia as a thickener for smoothies, egg replacer in baking, and PUDDING!

What do I need?:

• 1 1/4 cup of non dairy milk
• 1/4 cup of chia seeds
• 2 TBSP cocoa powder
• 1 TBSP mape syrup (the real kind)
• 1/4 tsp peppermint extract or crushed candy cane

How do I make it?:

• In a mixing bowl combine all ingredients and mix them to death.
• Put in container or bowl and refrigerate overnight or for at least an hour to thicken to pudding firmness.
• Eat

I like to separate my pudding into mason jars. Different sizes and number of jars depending on who I am making them for (children like the smaller jars). You can top the pudding with non dairy whipped cream or some crushed oreos if you want it to be more of a pie flavor/texture.

Send me some ideas for next time. Just remember, anything you can make, I can probably make vegan.
