Have a hard time getting out of bed in the mornings? Let’s face it, no one likes those waking moments when a blaring alarm clock yanks you away from a peaceful slumber. Hit the snooze button once or twice and any time you’ve set aside for breakfast seriously dwindles. Don’t let a little extra shut-eye prevent you from eating a complete, healthy meal. Prep a chia and maca pudding the night before, and in the morning, you can just grab a delicious, nutrition-packed jar on the way out the door. This grab-and-go meal will change your life–or your mornings, at least!
Overnight Chia & Maca Pudding
Ingredients
½ tsp. maca powder
4 Tbsp. chia seeds
3 cups almond milk
1 tsp. vanilla bean powder
2 Tbsp. maple syrup
Fresh fruit + favorite toppings
Directions
- In a bowl or mason jar, combine all ingredients and mix until evenly combined.
- Cover jar with lid and place in the fridge. After about 20 minutes, stir pudding so chia seeds don’t settle on the bottom. Leave jar in the fridge overnight.
- In the morning, layer pudding with fresh fruit and add any toppings you wish.
