I hate always having the same breakfast day after day so I often find myself trying new things. Yesterday for breakfast I made a raspberry pineapple chia pudding and boy was it ever good!! Ch-Ch–Ch–Chia! Yum!! ❤
These are my favourite chia seeds to use in chia pudding recipes and taste amazing!
I also have been eating a lot of smoothie bowls for breakfast. It is harder to find good fresh fruit this time of year so smoothies and other things like this chia pudding, which use frozen fruit, are ideal. Since the chia pudding needs to sit overnight, it is a quick grab and go breakfast in the morning. I like how you can choose any toppings you like, I personally love raspberries and pineapples. You can make a few of these, and they keep for a couple of days covered in the refrigerator, perfect for when you know you have a busy week ahead.

Did you know that chia seeds are loaded with nutrients that are beneficial for your body and brain? Even though chia seeds are small, they come with loads of nutrients and are considered one of the world’s healthiest foods on the planet. In just one ounce of chia seeds, there are 11 grams of fibre, and 4 grams of protein are perfect for a pre or post-workout snack! The ideal thing about chia seeds is that they are super easy to incorporate into your diet. Chia seeds can be enjoyed in smoothies, oatmeal, pudding, yogurt, and any baked good. They taste amazing in this recipe.
