Berry chia pudding

Since I arrived from holidays I am trying to do some HIIT every day, beside my daily yoga practice and some days I just don't find any motivation to the HIIT...even if it 15-20 minutes is just hard and sometimes my head is in yoga...sorry I can't help it.
However if there is something that I am enjoying even more, it's my breakfast after these sessions.

Recently a friend asked me to post some chia puddings and I never thought about it, and actually I tend to do them once in a while for breakfast or as a afternoon snack...they are so yummy!

Ingredients:

For the chia pudding:

• 150 g of raspberries 
• 4 Tbsp of chia seeds (I used the white ones)
• 3 Tbsp of shredded coconut
• 1/2 tsp of vanilla extract (optional)
• 1 cup of almond milk 

For the topping:

• fruit of your choice (I chose mango)
• blueberries
• laminated almond or coconut
• mint leafs

Let's do it: 

• In a deep bowl you start by smashing the berries with a fork 
• After smashing the berries you can add, the shredded coconut, the chia seeds and the vanilla extract and mix well with a spoon
• Add the cup of almond milk and mix well until you get a homogenous mixture 
• Pour the mixture in 2 small glass jar and don't forget to close them with the lead. After you can place them in the fridge overnight 

I topped the chia pudding with mint but I also add some smashed mango, coconut chips and poppy seeds and blueberries as I am working in adding a good amount of anti-oxydants especially in my breakfast.

I hope you try this one and have fun adding different things on your topping, you can even add shredded dark chocolate :) 

Today I leave you with Angus & Julia Stone that is a folk indie pop band from Australia formed by sister and brother. I came across with this band in 2007 when I was living in Azores and for really long time their first album was all the time playing in my car and iPod. 

I hope you like it.

Happy day to all of you!
