Strawberry Chia Coconut Pudding
Who doesn’t love pudding!! I can’t think of anyone who doesn’t, right!?! I remember growing up, my grandmother used to make my sister and I pistachio pudding, and it was so creamy, just so delicious! And now, I want to share this love of pudding with my kids, without all the added preservatives and nasty ingredients. Here I’ve created a pudding using quality ingredients that your family will be able to indulge in guilt-free. If you don’t have strawberries, you can use other fruit; blueberries, raspberries, pineapples, mango, etc. Any fruit will work here!
Here’s the recipe:
Ingredients:
- 2 cups fresh or frozen organic strawberries, sliced (you can use other berries)
- 5-10 dates, pits removed (the dates add the sweetness, so the more dates the sweeter)
- ½ cup filtered water
- 1 can full fat coconut cream or milk (Cha’s only has organic coconut and water as ingredients)
- 3 tablespoons whole chia seeds
- 1 teaspoon alcohol-free vanilla
Directions:
- Cover dates with water in blender and allow to sit for a few minutes to absorb the water
- Add in coconut milk, chia seeds, vanilla, strawberries and blend
- Once blended pour into a 1-litre glass jar
- Cover, and chill overnight.
