    Chia Seed Breakfast

    Jump to Recipe Print Recipe

    Easy morning routines are the best.

    I love to meal prep these chia seed puddings for the breakfast for many reasons:

    • It's a convenient grab and go breakfast
    • its not a loud morning blender routine
    • its delicious
    • naturally vegan, dairy-free, and egg free.

    Chia Seed Breakfast pudding is a great alternative to an oatmeal breakfast if you're looking for more of a low carb breakfast idea.

    Frozen riced cauliflower gives this pudding great texture, addition of vegetables and makes it more filling.

    Store in individual containers for the 2-3 days at a time and throw on some toppings if you like in the morning.

    What you need:

    • Chia seeds
    • Vanilla Protein Powder
    • Frozen Cauliflower Rice
    • Almond Milk
    • Cinnamon
    • Frozen Mixed Berries

    Substitions:

    You can use any milk or nut-milk of choice.

    Optional to omit cauliflower rice.

    Like it sweeter? Add maple syrup

    Granola, nuts & seeds are welcome!

    How to make chia seed breakfast pudding:

    1. In a bowl or meal prep container, mix chia seeds, protein powder, and cinnamon.
    2. Stir in almond milk and all to set for 5 minutes.
    3. Stir chia seed mixture again and then add frozen cauliflower and frozen berries.
    4. Stir one more time and put in the fridge over night.
    5. Serve with favorite toppings! I always use a scoop of almond butter.

    What if I don't want to wait til the morning?

    You don't have to wait until overnight! I would at least let this sit out for about an hour at room temperature before eating to allow the berries and cauliflower rice to thaw.

    If you made this at 8 am and brought it to work, it would be very cold but still great by 9 am.

    To eat in about 15 minutes, omit cauliflower rice and use fresh berries.
