Refreshing, omega 3 fatty acid and vitamin C rich, quick breakfast
The base of this lemon chia pudding are chia seeds that soak up liquids and create a pudding like yummyness. This lemon chia pudding is a lovely, refreshing and satiating breakfast. I used sweet gooey dates to sweeten the pudding instead of sugar. The recipe is incredibly easy. You just mix everything together and wait until the mixture reaches the desired pudding like thickness.

Chia seeds are incredibly healthy, they contain plant protein, fibre, omega 3 fatty acids, calcium, magnesium and iron. The lemon alkalizes our body and provides vitamin C, while the iron rich, sweet, almost caramel tasting dates balance the tartness of the lemon.
I had a Matcha tea with my pudding. Matcha tee is a Japanese green tea which is a great option instead of coffee. I don’t drink coffee since years. During my pregnancies I developed and aversion to the smell and taste of coffee and I still don’t feel like starting to drink it again, therefore I wake myself up with various teas in the morning. They keep me alert for longer and I also don’t have the bad aftertaste and smell in my mouth that I had after drinking coffee.
Let’s see how to make this yummy chia pudding.
