 Scroll down for Chia Pudding recipe. |
| Top left, ready to add fruit to Harold's Chia Pudding-- made with unsweetened coconut milk, cocoa powder and chia seeds, and mine--made with unsweetened almond milk and chia seeds. The fruit makes adding a sweetener unnecessary. Yesterday I persuaded Harold to at least try some of the chia seed pudding. He commented it was, "Alright," as in ok. Today he reported that he had his best tennis games ever yesterday after eating the pudding! He was eager to throw the fruit in and eat it down today on his way out the door for more tennis. ~~~~~~~~ 
I started working out for the first time in my life in 2007!
  
Chia Seed Pudding
Mix approximately 2 tablespoons chia seeds with approximately 1 cup of unsweetened almond milk, flax milk, hemp milk, or coconut milk
in a tightly closed container.
If you desire, add a tiny bit of Stevia or raw honey.
Shake rapidly. Then thoroughly shake several times
over the next 15 minutes.
Place in refrigerator overnight to set.
If you add fruit before you eat it, you'll get your sweet taste naturally...don't need the Stevia at all.
Variations could be unsweetened cocoa powder when you make it, nuts, bananas, coconut, or pumpkin pie spices--ground cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves and ginger.
A friend also likes his pudding made with crushed peaches and water.
I'm sure there are many ideas I haven't heard about yet.
This couldn't be easier or more healthy...
also adds a burst of energy.
Thanks to friends David, Carisse, Nicole and Kristin for introducing me to Chia Pudding and sharing their ideas!
If you can't buy chia seeds locally, they're easy to find online.

I know I showed this two years ago, but it's worth repeating to see what health looks like compared to...well, shall we say unhealthy eating and absolutely no exercise.
