Protein-Packed Chia Pudding

Mix together this tasty pudding in under a minute, wait for it to set, and enjoy! Pair it with your favorite fruit and some cacao nibs for an excellent mid-day treat.

Recipe makes 2-3 servings.

Ingredients:

• 1 ripe banana (the browner the better!)
• 1/3  cup of nut butter (peanut butter is our favorite)
• 1 tsp vanilla
• 1/4 tsp salt
• 1 spirulina pod (equivalent to 2 tablespoons)
• 4 tablespoons chia seeds
• 1 cup nut milk (oat milk is a great choice for a mild flavor)

Steps: 

1. In a medium sized bowl, mix together the banana, peanut butter, vanilla, salt, room-tempurature spirulina and chia seeds using a fork until you get a thick paste.
2. Slowly add in the nut milk until everything is totally blended.
3. Let your chia pudding sit on counter for 10 minutes before mixing it again
4. Let it set in the fridge for at least half an hour (if covered you can let it sit for up to a few days)

Serve with sliced banana or a handful of blueberries! We like to top ours with a scoop of greek yogurt and hemp hearts for a nutty flavor, but cacao nibs would be excellent too. 

Enjoy!
