Description

I’ve never been a big fan of chia seed pudding, but it all changed a few weeks ago, when I decided to give these seeds a second chance and combine them with apple puree. Only then I realized why so many people love this healthy pudding. It’s light, it’s satiating and it has a very pleasant consistency. It’s great at any time of the day, good for breakfast, for a snack or even as a dessert!

The recipe that I propose is the one I like to enjoy before training. I usually add some protein – Iswari’s Super Green Protein. This mixture, in addition to the beautiful colour that gives to the pudding, is a real protein bomb, rich in nutrients and minerals. It is a pure protein and, to be clear, it does not contain artificial colours or flavours (so it does not taste like chocolate or brownies). It is a blend of three vegetable proteins (hemp, rice and peas), matcha, spirulina and chlorella.

Do you want the complete recipe? It is super practical and takes no more than 10 minutes to prepare it.

Ingredients:

3.5 tablespoons of Chia seeds

1 cup (250 ml) of vegetable drink

1/3 cup of apple puree

½ tablespoon of Iswari’s Super Green Protein

Shavings of lemon peel

Cinnamon

Vanilla extract (optional)

Preparation:

1 – Put the chia seeds and the vegetable drink in a glass jar with lid. Close it and shake it very well until the chia seeds are mixed with the drink.

2 – Store in the refrigerator overnight (to rehydrate the chia seeds).

3 – In the morning, add the remaining ingredients, mix well and… voilá! Breakfast is ready to be eaten.

As a topping, in this case, I added grated coconut, shavings of lemon peel and Iswari’s raw chocolate: a perfect combination.
