Hi Gena,
I really enjoy your blog and get a lot of ideas and inspiration from it. I love cooking and wanted to pass on a recent chia pudding – more like jello – that I made:
I used 2 cups of coconut water and blended in about 5 or 6 thawed frozen strawberries so the water became pink and sweet with a few pieces of strawberry remaining. I then added some sliced fresh banana, a drizzle of coconut syrup, and a dash of vanilla extract. Finally, 3/4 cups of chia seeds and whisked in a bowl. It came out really yummy! I think you could use other liquid bases of coconut water, fresh apple juice or coconut milk. I think I may try 1 cup fresh orange juice, 1 cup coconut water, vanilla, and pieces of kiwi or banana next. Or apple juice and pieces of pear. Maybe blueberries and corn in the summer! Lots of options for a fruity breakfast (not your fave) or dessert.
Take care and keep on bloggin’
