Healthy breakfast : chocolate chia pudding
I had this chia package in the back of my pantry since the beginning of winter when I used it to thicken the stews. Honestly I totally forgot its existence. But when I was looking for oats I found them, and figured that it’s gonna be even better! This chocolate chia breakfast pudding is somewhere between tapioca pudding and chocolate milk. So of course my toddler loved it! Who knew that eating healthy can be that easy? What I loved about it is that you can prepare it in the evening and leave in the fridge overnight. So when you are in the hurry in the morning just add some fruits and voila! Healthy, sweet and satisfying breakfast is served :).
2 cups milk
1/4 cup chia seeds
3 tablespoons cacao
2 tablespoons maple sirup
Stir it all together and pour in bowls. Refrigerate for at least an hour, or overnight. Stir again before serving. Add some fresh fruits and nuts. Have a great day!
