Hello Friends, today we are sharing with you one of our go-to recipes form the Plant-Powered Athlete book. Easily digestible, packed with antioxidants and full of high-quality plant-based protein, this energizing raw pudding is a beautiful start to any morning. It’s also a great post-workout breakfast option.
The fun thing about making chia pudding is that it’s very versatile and infinitely customizable. We love incorporating fresh fruit into the pudding mixture – mango, bananas, blueberries all work great. For this creamy manage-chia recipe, we used one big juicy mango and spiced things up with fresh ginger. This is a great recipe to incorporate into your meal prep days – make a double batch and you’re all set with an exciting breakfast or snack for the next couple of days. Hope you’ll give it a try 🙂
