Quick and easy 5 minute dairy free chia seed pudding for kickstarting a busy day.
If you’re busy and have no time to make breakfasts early in the morning, go ahead and make this 5 minute pudding the night before and you can just carry it along with you. It takes very minimal effort and is very convenient for carrying.
This chia seed pudding is also for people who like a light, low carb breakfast since this has around 10g of carbs only. However, there are so many ways to make it more calorie dense and carb loaded.
Ingredients and easy swaps :
-Chia seeds : Chia seeds are very good sources of omega 3 fatty acids that are necessary for good brain health. They’re also very calorie dense
-Oat milk : You can replace this with coconut milk for better flavor or add any milk of your choice.
–Honey : To make this vegan you can use agave or maple syrup.
–Strawberries : Strawberries are in season so I top mine now with them , however you can use any berries of your choice (Blueberries are a great alternative)
–Muesli: If you want to make your pudding more crunchy dense you can add in muesli or granola. This makes it more fibre rich as well. Check out my no bake homemade granola recipe right here:
–Nut butters: Add in a teaspoon of your fav nut butter for making this meal more satiating.
–Roasted nuts: For an additional crunch, add in any of your fav toasted nuts
