I know it may sound kind of cliché wanting to start a diet or eating better on the first week of the year, but after eating delicious food packed with empty calories during the Holidays, who doesn't?
On today’s blog I will be sharing an easy yet healthy breakfast recipe; apple-cinnamon chia breakfast pudding. Chia seeds are a great source of antioxidants, omega-3 fatty acid, calcium, fiber and proteins.
Since I couldn't find chia seeds alone, I bought Qi’a by Nature’s Path which is super food breakfast cereal. This product contains chia seeds, buckwheat, hemp cereal, dried apples and cinnamon. It has a great taste plus many healthy properties. You can also use it on smoothies, fruits, yogurt or even for baking.
INGREDIENTS
- 1 cup of chia seeds or Qi’a cereal
- 2 cups of almond milk
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoons raw honey
- Seasonal fruit for topping (Strawberries, blackberries, banana)
- Cinnamon on the top
* This recipe is for 2 servings.
DIRECTIONS
- Mix almond milk, chia seeds/Qi’a cereal, vanilla and honey in a bowl.
- Mix well until all ingredients are combined.
- Store covered in fridge overnight.
- Blend well before serving. If the pudding gets too thick add some water.
- Add fruits and nuts.
Enjoy!
