FILLING, HEARTY, MILDLY SWEET AND CITRUSY, THIS VANILLA ORANGE CHIA PUDDING IS MY FAVORITE GO-TO BREAKFAST.
Chia pudding ingredients
- 3 oz almond milk
- 4 oz water
- grated zest from 1/2 orange
- pinch salt
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 oz chia
Additional ingredients
- your choice of fruit (I love bananas and raspberries)
- extra protein like nuts, seeds, coconut yogurt, etc.
First, combine chia pudding ingredients in the order shown (chia last) in a ball jar. This step is crucial, don't try to mix it in a bowl instead. You really need a ball jar to shake the ingredients together.
Next, wait 2 minutes, and shake again. Do not leave your chia pudding! It will develop lumps, just by sitting there. Seriously, set the timer.
Wait 1-2 more minutes, shake again. At this point, the chia seeds should be equally dispersed in the liquid mixture. If not, wait one more minute and shake again.
Lastly, refrigerate overnight.
In the morning, add your favorite fruit and additional protein you desire. Enjoy!
