Since chia pudding needs to sit for a while, I suggest you make these either at night (for breakfast the next day) or first thing in the morning (for an afternoon snack or an evening dessert). Chia is a great source of fiber, omega 3, and plant-based protein. Because it expands dramatically when it has the opportunity to absorb liquid, chia is a great food if you want to lose weight. I recommend you incorporate it into your weekly (or even daily) diet.

To make any of these chia puddings even more rich in protein, simply add some protein powder! My favorite is Vivo Sport protein powder. If you want to try it, use the discount code “Rawvana” (without quotation marks) for a discount! And for more recipes like these, check out my amazing Rawvana Renewal program.
