This is one of my favorite recipes--it's a make-ahead meal that will get you 37 grams of protein, and a ton of fiber and antioxidants in the chia seeds!
Protein Chia Pudding:
Ingredients
Base chia pudding:
½ cup unsweetened almond milk
1 scoop protein powder (about 30 grams)
¼ cup plain Greek yogurt
2 tablespoon chia seeds
1 tsp vanilla extract
pinch of salt
Instructions
In a 10-oz mason jar or glass container, whisk together milk, protein powder, and Greek yogurt. Add vanilla extract and salt. Whisk. Add chia seeds. Whisk to combine.
Pace in the fridge for at least 20 minutes (ideally 1-2 hours or overnight) to allow the chia seeds to expand and the pudding to thicken.
In the morning, pull out of the fridge and top with berries of your choice--another great source of antioxidants and fiber, and only adds a few calories!
