Choc Banana & Peanut Butter Chia Pudding

I love how chia puddings are so versatile.  You can add whatever flavours you love and turn it into a delicious dessert or snack (that also contains protein and Omega 3’s!). 

One of my summer favourites was my Mango and Coconut Chia Pudding, but this choc banana one will be my go to for the colder months!

Fun Fact – Chia seeds are high in fibre and can absorb up to 15 times the amount of water per weight of the seed.  Unlike other plant based proteins, they contain all 9 essential amino acids (these are amino acids our body can’t make, so we need to consume them).
When I make my chia puddings, I often do them in the morning or night before as they do take a little bit of time to set.
