Breakfast: Chocolate Chia Pudding

3-4 servings

If you already like tapioca, you'll adore this creamy, luscious treat.

Nutritional Notes: Chia, as you already know, is a potable pet. You may have even received one as a completely thoughtless gift. But, chia seeds are a protein powerhouse, easy to digest, and high in omega-3 fatty acids, calcium, and soluble fiber, making it the stuff of champions.

Ingredients:
1 cup chia seeds
3 cups nut milk
3 Tbsp. maple syrup or agave
2 Tbsp. cocoa powder
1 tsp cinnamon
One pinch stevia
One pinch salt

This one couldn’t be simpler. Combine all ingredients in a bowl, and stir until seeds are coated. Let sit for a half hour or so, and enjoy. If you discover clumps, give it another vigorous stir.
