This coconut cream chia pudding is not only loaded with antioxidants and healthy fats, but to put a twist on it I decided to add probiotics too!
Chia seeds are one of the healthiest foods on the planet. They contain 6 times more calcium than milk, 64% more potassium than a banana 6 times more iron than spinach and provide 32% of your daily magnesium (and that’s for just 2 tablespoons worth!).
I love making these type of chia pudding parfaits in the morning because they really fill you up. Chia seeds are one of the best foods for providing sustained, and lasting energy throughout the day.
This recipe in particular is to die for. I am not joking – try it and let me know what you think in the comments below!
