Easy Chia Pudding Recipe by Dr. Kirsten Almon, ND

With unexpected snow days and hungry kids it’s always a good idea to stock up on back-up snacks.

I had this made in 5 minutes and let it in the fridge overnight and presto, a delicious healthy snack that both of my children loved! Mom win!

Ingredients:

•  1 1/2 cups (360 ml) Organic Unsweetened Coconut Milk
• 1/3 cup (63 g) chia seeds
• 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon (optional)
• 1/4 tsp sea salt (optional)
• optional: 1/2 tsp vanilla extract

Add all ingredients except sweetener to a mixing bowl and whisk vigorously to combine. Let it rest, covered in the fridge overnight or at least 3-5 hours.

Leftovers can be kept covered in the fridge for 2-3 days. Serve chilled with blue/raspberries, pomegranate seeds or granola!
