Protein Packed Chia Seed Pudding


(makes 4 servings)
1 14 oz can culinary coconut milk. I like Thai Kitchen brand
4 TBS chia seeds
2 scoops Nutrilite chocolate or vanilla protein powder (I like chocolate)
1 tsp ground cinnamon
2 tsp maple syrup (or to taste)
Pinch of salt
Water, if needed

Fun toppings: Choose from frozen or fresh organic berries, kiwi, mango, papaya, pomegranate seeds,
chopped walnuts, pumpkin seeds, shredded coconut, and/or cacao nibs.

Pour all ingredients (except extra water) into a deep mixing bowl and stir together until well blended
and smooth. There should be no lumps remaining. You can use a whisk or an emersion blender.
Alternatively, use a blender and pulse on low until well combined and smooth.

Transfer to a storage container or sealable jar for storage and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or
overnight. If pudding gets too thick, add some water, 1 TBS at a time and stir. Add water to desired
consistency.

Divide pudding into four servings. Serve in a bowl topped with fresh or frozen organic berries, sliced
kiwi, or mango and chopped walnuts, or toppings of choice
