Ingredients
Ingredients
- 2 cup frozen mixed berries blueberries, raspberries, and strawberries
- 2 tbsp chia seeds black or white chia seeds
- 1 cup unsweetened almond milk or any plant-based milk of choice
- 0.5 cup Greek yogurt plain and unsweetened for extra protein
- 1 tbsp almond butter adds healthy fats and creaminess
- 1 tsp honey optional, or one pitted medjool date
- 0.5 tsp vanilla extract for aromatic depth
Notes
For the best texture, consume immediately. If making ahead, store in an airtight jar for up to 24 hours; the chia seeds will create a pudding-like consistency, which can be thinned with a little water or milk. You can substitute flax seeds for chia seeds if preferred. For a vegan version, use soy or coconut yogurt and maple syrup instead of honey.
