I started this blog so my daughters could find all of our family favourite recipes in one place. It has actually grown into more than just the family favourites but also other recipes we've tried out in our kitchen. I don't like to fill up the post with alot of chatter. Sometimes there's a little story to tell, but usually I like to get right to the point. So this is for them, but hope you find some recipes that you like as well. I'll be sharing a lot of recipes, and along the way you'll find some crafty things and maybe some helpful hints too! Welcome!

Chocolate Chia Pudding

Similar to tapioca in texture, but chia pudding is, as I read somewhere recently, "tapioca on steroids!" Packed with nutrition these little guys are energy seeds! So long "frog eyes", hello chia seeds. And here's an interesting little tidbit... "chia" means "strength" in the Mayan language.

Ingredients:

1/2 cup chia seeds

4 tsps cocoa powder

2 cups milk

2 tbsps maple syrup

1/2 tsp vanilla extract (optional)

 

Simply whisk everything together, let sit 5 minutes then whisk again. Spoon into serving dishes, cover and refrigerate at least 7 or 8 hours or best overnight. It will thicken the longer it sits.

Serves 3-4
