Ingredients:

• 6 tbsp Chia seeds

• 3 cups Unsweetened Coconut yogurt or unsweetened yogurt of choice

• 4 tbsp unsweetened Coconut milk (or milk of choice)

• 1/2 cup chopped strawberries, mangoes, apples, or blueberries (or any fruit you prefer - fresh or frozen)

• 3 tsp Matcha powder

• 3 tbsp (or 3 servings) Protein Powder of choice

  • (I personally prefer a plant based vanilla protein powder such as Ora organics or an unflavored Bone Broth protein powder)

• 2 tbsp local Honey (optional)

  • if you are not using protein powder, adding honey can help sweeten the pudding a bit.

Directions:

• Mix yogurt, coconut milk, chopped fruit, protein powder, matcha powder, honey (optional), and chia seeds in a large container. 

• Let chill overnight to allow the chia seeds to gel and form a pudding-like consistency

• When ready to eat, top with more fresh fruit, seeds and nuts, or drizzle a little honey over the top.

  *** I love topping the pudding with kiwi, walnuts, or pumpkin seeds ***
