Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 0.5 cups chia seeds
- 2 cups unsweetened almond milk
- 1 scoop vanilla protein powder
- 1 tablespoons maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup fresh strawberries
- 0.5 cup fresh blueberries
- 0.25 cup mixed nuts
Instructions
In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine the chia seeds with unsweetened almond milk. Stir well to ensure the chia seeds are evenly distributed throughout the milk.
Add the vanilla protein powder, maple syrup, and vanilla extract to the bowl. Whisk thoroughly until all the ingredients are combined and the mixture is smooth.
Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or a lid and place it in the refrigerator. Allow the chia pudding to set for at least 4 hours, or overnight for best results. This will ensure the chia seeds absorb the liquid and expand, creating a pudding-like consistency.
Once set, remove the chia pudding from the refrigerator and give it a good stir to break up any clumps.
Wash and slice the fresh strawberries. Top each serving of chia pudding with a generous portion of sliced strawberries and fresh blueberries.
Sprinkle mixed nuts over the fresh fruit to add a crunch and an additional protein boost.
Serve immediately or keep refrigerated for up to 3 days. Enjoy your nutritious, high protein chia pudding with fresh fruit!
