IMG_7862.jpg

This recipe will be your new go-to 2 minute breakfast!

Ingredients: (serving size 1-2). If you want to make a bigger batch of chia seed pudding to last for the week, double or triple the amount of milk and chia seeds.

  • 2 tbsp chia seeds

  • 1 cup almond milk (or favorite non-dairy milk)

  • 1/4 cup favorite granola

  • 2 handfuls of your favorite berries

  • 1/4 tsp cinnamon

  • Drizzle of maple syrup

  • 4 mint leaves, torn or roughly chopped

Directions:

  1. The night before you want to eat your pudding, whisk together the chia seeds and almond milk. Notice how the sensation of mixing feels in your hands. What thoughts go through your mind as you whisk? Let it sit for 5 minutes and then whisk it again. Cover and store in the fridge overnight. Notice if impatience shows up. What does it feel like to be with that?

    (Note: before you put the pudding in the fridge, the chia seeds should be floating freely in the milk. Make sure they have not all sunk to the bottom. You may need to let it sit for another 5 minutes and whisk again before putting it in the fridge.)

  2. In the morning, remove your pudding from the fridge, give it a stir, and top with granola, berries, cinnamon, mint and a drizzle of maple syrup. Or any other combination your heart desires.
