Sunny Chia Pudding
Ingredients
Is this a tasty breakfast, dessert or a snack? You decide! A fresh nectarine or peach from Chile adds natural sweetness to this pudding and brings a taste of summer during our winter season. Chia seeds are a wonderful ingredient as they are a filling, nutrient dense food that is also a source of fiber.
