Recipe
Ingredients (1 serving):
- 3 tablespoons chia seeds
- 230 ml unsweetened almond milk (or any milk of your choice)
- 1 scoop (about 30g) of your favorite protein powder (whey, plant-based, etc.)
- 65g Greek yogurt
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon almond butter
- 1 tablespoon hemp seeds (optional for extra protein)
- Berries or sliced fruit for topping
Method:
1. In a bowl, mix chia seeds and almond milk. Stir well to avoid clumping.
2. Let the mixture sit for 5-10 minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent clumps. The chia seeds will absorb the liquid and swell, creating a pudding-like consistency.
3. In a separate bowl, mix the protein powder with a small amount of water or almond milk to create a smooth paste.
4. Add the protein paste, Greek yogurt, vanilla extract, almond butter, and hemp seeds (if using) to the chia seed mixture. Stir until well combined.
5. Place the bowl in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes or overnight to allow the chia seeds to fully absorb the liquid and thicken.
6. Before serving, give the mixture a good stir. If it's too thick, you can add a bit more almond milk to reach your desired consistency.
7. Top the chia seed porridge with fresh berries or sliced fruit
