I discovered this coconut chia pudding in an airport. The ethical of the story is that you simply by no means know the place yow will discover wholesome decisions.
I used to be in O’Hare on a visit again from Montana after I noticed a merchandising machine with salad in it. Let that sink in – a merchandising machine with salad.
Given that I'm all the time on the hunt for wholesome decisions and I used to be in an airport (land of crappy decisions) – I finished to verify this merchandising machine out.
It was the good factor! It professed to getting contemporary meals day-after-day – and there have been snacks, salads, and breakfasts in recyclable containers. You introduced the container again to the merchandising machine and so they reused it!
Anyway, it was 8 AM so I made a decision to strive the coconut chia pudding with contemporary pineapple for $6. I nonetheless consider chia seeds because the factor you unfold on terracotta to make a pet – however I assumed it is perhaps good.
It was refreshing, scrumptious, and filling and so a lot better for me than the McDonald’s I had handed on my option to the gate.
I made a decision to make it at dwelling.
This is the kind of recipe that ought to have been on Snack Girl for years. I've completed chocolate chia pudding and pumpkin chia seed pudding however these had been extra like dessert.
The simplicity of this recipe is tough to beat. Toss some chia seeds right into a bowl with a can of sunshine coconut milk. Put it within the fridge and stir it a few instances.
The subsequent morning you have got a tapioca like pudding that reminds you of the tropics. I added contemporary pineapple as a result of I like the flavour mixture of pineapple and coconut (pina colada anybody?).
My daughter thought this want honey or one thing candy – however I discovered it excellent with out added sugar. It is as much as you!
