This blueberry chia seed pudding recipe is made with coconut kefir, Manuka honey, and vegan protein powder; an easy (and yummy) recipe with protein, fiber, probiotics, and healthy fats.
I started looking into chia seed pudding as a way to get my sweet fix without feeding inflammation or adding more misery to the gut issues I was already having when I was first diagnosed with Graves’ Disease.
These tiny seeds packed a big nutrient punch. Just two tablespoons of chia seeds have nearly 5 grams of protein, 9 grams of healthy omega-3 fats, and 10 grams of fiber.
If you’re looking for an easy recipe that tastes delicious for breakfast, a snack or dessert, this is it.
