Looks like these Chia seed puddings are the in thing now. Iv been seeing it all over instagram! Beautiful creations………………. now I know why!!!…………they are the best breakfast jars if you’re SO OVER those overnight oats or smoothie bowls. They take exactly 5-10 minutes to make and can be made in advance. So all you have to do is top the jar with chopped fruits before you run outta the house in the mornings!You want a healthy dessert?? This is for you!
Mangoes are in season now! They would have tasted so good with these puddings! I had some cut mangoes in the fridge ……even stopped myself from eating them so I can use it for my photos the next day!!…… Those orange mangoes would have blended in perfectly with the cocoa and oranges???? right?……….well………..along came my husband, and ate it for his midnight snack!!! sigh!
You can go creative and experiment with these Chia seed puddings. You can even use almond or cashew milk if don’t drink plain milk. Its your party!
