Chia Pudding

I am super excited because an Organic Market opened up right down the street from me this week. I can't tell you how excited I was. When I lived in California I lived 2 minutes away from Sprouts so when I moved here it was a big change I didn't want to get use to. Now, I don't have to order any of my health foods online and I can pop in and out and get fresh ingredients. Did I say how happy I am?!! 

I made some chia seed pudding with what I bought this week. I literally drank mine it was so good.

If you would like to browse other chia pudding recipes you can type the word chia in the search box to the left of my blog page. It will bring up more recipes.

Recipe below ;)

Serving: 2 cups
2 tablespoons chia seed
2 cups plain hemp milk
2 tablespoons goji berries
Mint leaves

Mix the chia seeds and hemp milk together. Let sit atleast 2 hours.  The seeds will expand the longer they sit but I don't recommend letting them sit longer then overnight. They get a little mushy for my taste if they sit too long. Top with goji berries and mint leaves and eat up!

Quinoa Breakfast Bowl

If you haven't read some of my previous post I love quinoa. I normally have some in the fridge at all times. It is a great healthy alternative to bleached rice and breads.
It is packed with protein, low in fat and is a great source of iron and fiber.

Here is a super simple breakfast bowl I made.

Ingredients:
1/2 cup cooked quinoa
1 cup coconut almond chia pudding (recipe here)

1/2 cup strawberries
1/4 cup non-fat plain greek yogurt
Raw Honey
Lemon Basil garnish

Mix first two ingredient together. Top with strawberries then yogurt. Drizzle honey. Garnish with lemon basil.

This is another super easy breakfast. If you have quinoa and chia pudding already made it's a quick breakfast also. Hope you enjoy!
