Alexander & I often eat chia pudding for breakfast at home.
It is delicious, satiating, easy to make & looks appetizing ♥
When I make chia pudding for breakfast, I make for several days (5 days) in one batch.
Every morning it is so nice & easy … I just take it out of the fridge, add to a bowl & sprinkle with fruit & puré (That you also can dice or ccok and then store for the whole week in the fridge), nuts, seeds, raisins, bee pollen etc. – So so easy!
This one is with rhubarb puré and it is so delicious with the sour rhubarb to the chia pudding ♥

Chia seeds are very healthy and I use them often for both breakfast & baking.
Chia seeds are filled with fibers – That’s why they are great for your stomach & they keep you satiated for a very long time.
They contain lots of Omega-3 acids.
