A heartier, more filling version of chia pudding, adding cooked quinoa in the mix. Simply top it with fruit, granola, or infuse your favorite flavors into the pudding.

Ingredients

  • 3/4 cup cooked quinoa
  • 2 Tbsp chia seeds
  • 3/4 cup non-dairy milk

Instructions

  • In a bowl or to-go container, toss the quinoa and chia seeds together. Pour the milk into it, and stir to combine. Let this sit for at least half an hour, or overnight, until the chia seeds absorb the liquid.

Notes

Flavor add-ins:
  • 2 Tbsp fresh mint and the juice of 1/4 of a lime, pureed with the non-dairy milk
  • 2 Tbsp coconut flakes and the juice of 1/4 of a lime
  • 1/2 tsp cinnamon, apple pie spice, or pumpkin pie spice
  • 1/2 tsp matcha green tea powder
  • 1/2 tsp turmeric and use full-fat coconut milk for the non-dairy milk
