Mango-Coconut Chia Pudding


Now that I have this blog people send me the best recipes! The newest one is from my friend Heather, who eats similar to my family. We had a crazy cooking session at my house the last time she was here but it was too crazy to write about. It was a mediterranean feast of some sorts, with homemade tzatziki,  mint meatballs, salads, etc. but the kids were helping and ingredients were flying. I forgot half the things we did. Next time Heather, aka "Headda", is in town I will document it better.


This recipe is an awesome dessert, breakfast, or snack. I, of course, had to alter the recipe a little but it is the kind of recipe that everyone can make their own. I eliminated the almonds and added blueberries and cinnamon. (The cinnamon was a recommendation from my friend Debbi who was here sampling with me. She also suggested adding pineapple to give it a little bite.)

Anyways, I have to make it again soon because I ate it all without sharing with the kids. Emma wasn't too interested but Ava had Will's last bite and liked it. I imagine the more fruit and cinnamon in it the more my kids would eat of it. If I have time to make it on July 4th I will layer with strawberries and blueberries for a fun red, white, and blue treat. 1 batch made 5 single servings so if you are going to make for a party double or triple the recipe.

Thanks for reading and if you make, enjoy!
