This High Protein Blue Chia Pudding is a nutritious and vibrant breakfast or snack option, packed with protein and fiber. Infused with blue spirulina for a beautiful color and extra nutrients, it combines chia seeds, vanilla protein powder, and unsweetened flax milk for a creamy, satisfying pudding that you can prepare ahead and enjoy chilled.

Ingredients

Chia Pudding Base

  • ¼ cup chia seeds
  • 30 g vanilla protein powder (approximately 1 rounded scoop, Puori whey recommended)
  • 1 cup unsweetened flax milk (or milk of choice, Good Karma unsweetened flaxmilk + protein suggested)
  • 1 tbsp good quality maple syrup (or 1-2 packets of stevia)
  • 1 gram scoop blue spirulina
  • Dash of salt

Optional Toppings

  • Fresh fruit (e.g., berries, banana slices)
  • Dollop of Greek yogurt

Instructions

  1. Combine dry ingredients: In a medium-sized bowl, whisk together the chia seeds and vanilla protein powder until they are evenly combined, ensuring there are no lumps.
  2. Add liquids and mix: Pour in the unsweetened flax milk along with the maple syrup and a dash of salt. Whisk thoroughly until the mixture is smooth and all ingredients are fully incorporated.
  3. Refrigerate to set: Divide the mixture evenly between two small glasses or jars. Cover them tightly and place in the refrigerator. Let it chill and thicken overnight or for at least 8 hours to allow the chia seeds to absorb the liquid and form a pudding-like texture.
  4. Serve with toppings: Before serving, give the pudding a good stir to uniformly distribute the texture. Top with fresh fruit and a dollop of Greek yogurt for additional flavor and protein boost, if desired.

Notes

  • Use any type of milk you prefer; almond, oat, or dairy milk work well too.
  • Blue spirulina powder can usually be found at health food stores or online; it adds a striking color and nutrient boost.
  • Adjust sweetness based on your preference by varying the amount of maple syrup or stevia.
  • For vegan option, use plant-based protein powder and dairy-free yogurt.
  • Pudding can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
