Welcome to my latest obsession! This nutrient-packed breakfast comes together in literally 3 minutes and will not dissapoint! It ticks a lot of nutritional boxes that are so important for hormone balance, blood sugar support, cardiovascular health, bone density, and gut health:

√ High protein (36 grams)

√ High fiber (19 grams)

√ Rich in omega-3 fats (7,600 milligrams)

√ Calcium-rich (659 milligrams)

√ Anti-inflammatory

√ Satiating

√ Super quick to make

√ Delish!

I couldn’t decide whether to call it a chia “pudding” or “porridge,” so I’m just sticking with breakfast bowl 😉 You could totally play around with the fruit topping – I’ve tried different berry varieties, chopped up apples, and even sliced bananas. Same with the almond butter – if you are “nut free” – try sunflower seed butter or even tahini (extra calcium!!)
