Many of my patients are trying to decrease their carb intake and increase their healthy fat intake. Chia seed porridge achieves both of those goals. If you’re someone who is used to eating oatmeal in the morning but also feels like it doesn’t quite fill you up, then this is for you.
You can make one at a time or prepare for a week’s worth of breakfast at one time.
Chia Seed Pudding
Put into a pint sized mason jar:
- 2 tablespoons chia seeds
- 1 tablespoon hemp heart
- a few shakes of Himalayan pink salt (bc it brings out some flavor)
- 1 tablespoons of dried goji berries or your favorite dried fruit
- hand full of your favorite nuts
If you’re making a week’s worth of these then put the jar lid on and leave them in your cupboard.
When you’re ready to enjoy one, then add the following to the jar:
- 1/2 cup hot water (hot makes it easier to mix but can be cold)
- 1/4-1/2 cup almond milk or coconut milk
- a hand full of blueberries or other fresh fruit
