3 tbsp chia seeds
1 cup unsweetened almond milk (or coconut milk)
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 tbsp maple syrup or stevia
½ cup mixed berries (strawberries, blueberries, raspberries)
2 tbsp sliced almonds or crushed walnuts
Directions
- In a bowl, mix chia seeds, almond milk, vanilla extract, and sweetener.
- Stir well and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or overnight, to allow the chia seeds to absorb the liquid and thicken.
- Top with fresh berries and sliced almonds before serving.
Notes
- Why It Works: Chia seeds are high in fiber and omega-3 fatty acids, which help stabilize blood sugar levels. The addition of berries provides antioxidants without the sugar load, while almonds offer healthy fats and protein to keep you feeling full.
