Layered Rainbow Chia Pudding

Have you been wondering what all the fuss is about chia pudding? In addition to it being a magical science experiment, chia pudding is pretty rad because it gives you a big boost of both fiber and calcium. When you eat it for breakfast, it's like starting your day with a fancy dessert - you can't go wrong with that can you?

Be sure to keep reading after the recipe because 20 of my blogging friends and I have teamed up to bring you even more great breakfast recipes at the bottom of this post!


Ingredients

  • 1 cup coconut or other plant based milk
  • 1/4 tsp vanilla
  • 1 tsp agave syrup or maple syrup
  • 1/4 cup chia seeds
  • 1/4 cup fresh or frozen raspberries*
  • 1 apricot*, diced
  • 1 spear pinapple, diced
  • 1 kiwi, peeled and diced

Directions

STEP 1 

Combine milk, vanilla, agave and chia is a glass bowl or measuring cup. Refrigerate at least four hours (up to 24 hours), stirring at least once during that time. If I am making this for breakfast, I will usually mix this up and put it in the fridge after dinner and stir it once right before bed and let it sit in the fridge overnight.

STEP 2

Layer pudding and chopped fruit in a stemless wine glass as follows:
layer 1: 1/3 chia pudding
layer 2: raspberries
layer 3: apricot
layer 3: 1/3 chia pudding
layer 4: pineapple
layer 5: kiwi
layer 6: remaining chia pudding
layer 7: blackberries

STEP 3

Top with shredded coconut if desired.

Enjoy!
