Creamy Mango Coconut Chia Pudding
It is no surprise that chia seeds are considered to be one of today’s superfoods. They are rich in omega-3 fatty acids, protein and iron, boost your digestion and are a good alternative to flaxseed. The remarkable thing about chia seeds is that they expand when combined with liquid – as in this delicious breakfast recipe. Simply mix together coconut milk, chia seeds, vanilla and honey to form a creamy chia pudding and top it off with fresh mango and coconut flakes.
Ingredients (serves 1):
- 200 ml coconut milk
- 3 Tbsp chia seeds
- 1 Tbsp honey
- 1 mango
- Vanilla powder
- Coconut flakes
Directions:
- Mix the coconut milk with the chia seeds, honey and vanilla powder in a jar or a bowl.
- Cover the container and put it in the refrigerator for at least 20 minutes (or overnight). Stir occasionally.
- The chia snack is ready when it has reached pudding consistency.
- Cut the mango into small pieces and arrange them on top of the pudding. Sprinkle with coconut flakes.
