I can’t believe it has taken me this long to jump on the happy chia eating bandwagon! Now that I have throttled myself aboard this merry eating party there is no going back. So if you feel a bit reluctant to try those tiny black pearls, which absorb H2O or any other moisture like it is going out of style, I say dive in and skinny dip. I won’t lecture you about all the healthful qualities of these gems, but I will leave you with one word ~ YUM ~ oh and a recipe to boot!
Chummy Chia Pudding
Rightly named so! If anyone dares to try a morsel from your bowl you will have a best mate for life!
Ingredients:
- ¼ – ½ C chia seeds
- 2-3 C coconut milk (although not ideal you can use tinned if you can’t make it fresh or to keep it completely raw sub any nut mylk)
- 1 tsp vanilla
- agave or maple syrup to taste
- 1 tsp cinnamon or pumpkin spice
Directions:
Mix the above ingredients together, cover and place in the fridge for 10+ minutes.
Then decorate with anything that gets you kicking in your knickers! My favorite combination is 2 fresh figs, a handful of fresh raspberries and a handful of small chunked raw fudge.
Not Chocolate Chocolate Fudge
Ingredients:
- ¾ C coconut butter, melted
- ¾ C cacao butter, melted
- ¾ C pumpkin seeds, ground to powder
- 1 C lucuma powder
- 1 C mesquite powder
- 3 tbsp agave or maple syrup
Preparation:
Blend melted butters together. Re-blend with remaining ingredients.
Spread into a glass dish or mold.
Place in fridge for two hours or until set.
This fudge will treat any sweet tooth kindly and your body will love all the healing ingredients. By the way, pumpkin seeds are great for keeping your man’s swimmers strong and healthy!
