2 Ingredient High Protein Breakfast - Chia Seed Pudding
Listen - this 2 ingredient breakfast (or after school /anytime snack) takes 30 seconds to prep. Get the kids to make it the night before - they will love seeing the transformation in the morning when they check their pudding!
I was reminded of chia seed pudding recently when I saw @clionaoconnor_ making it.
Here’s how you do it.
2 Ingredient High Protein Breakfast - Chia Seed Pudding
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup chia seeds
- 2 cups milk of choice
- (Makes enough for 2/3 portions)
Instructions
- Mix well chia seeds and 2 cups of milk and THAT’S IT 😱😜!
- Pop in the fridge overnight to allow the chia seeds to do their thing … they will absorb the milk creating a gel like (or frog spawn) texture that’s very pleasing!
Now you can add whatever bits you want before allowing to set. Here are some suggestions:
- vanilla extract
- tbsp maple syrup
- cinnamon
- cacao powder
Top with whatever you fancy:
- fruit of choice - I used banana for mine and blueberries for the teen
- peanut butter or other nut butter
- nuts and seeds
- cacao nibs or cacao (I used @nibbed_cacao #gifted)
- chocolate chips
- drizzle of honey/syrup
Lads - this is the easiest, protein and fibre packed breakfast you (or your kids!) will ever make! Great alternative to the cereal/toast options.
And the real test …. will they like it? It was devoured here by the teen so well deffo be making it again.
Would your kids like this?
