This pudding hits the spot fo real.

2 cups of Milk (almond, hemp, soy, etc)
Chia Seeds 6 tablespoons
Cocoa powder 6 tablespoons
Peanut Butter (or almond butter) 4 tablespoons
sweetner ( i used local honey or agave) to taste
pinch of salt ( i used kelp powder)


Blend baby blend. The chia seeds will make it thick but, the peanut butter is to help it give it that creamy pudding consistency. Scrape the bottom because the chia seeds will not blend completely the first time. I used powdered kelp instead if salt for extra nutrition with a salty flavor, because I misplaced my bag of sea salt so, use what works. There was no fishy taste. I also used coconut milk but, there are so many milk options like hemp and almond that are very nutritious.  If peanut butter is not a good option,use almond butter or some other nut butter. The great thing with these pudding recipes is they are so quick and easy to make. They sure beat the store brand puddings in flavor and health.You can also play around with the ingredients to make sure you have the perfect pudding. There you have a super quick, yummy superfood pudding. Enjoy!

COMMENTARY:I was looking for a healthy vegan chocolate pudding recipe and stumbled across this one. It is off the chain fo real good. It has chocolate and peanut butter so if you love reeses this will hit the spot. Its super nutritious because of the chia seeds which is an amazing superfood I am now in love with. After I ate it, I felt so energized and very happy. I will be incorporating chia seeds into my life like all the time now.

Ingredients (use vegan versions):

    1 block extra firm tofu
    3 tablespoons high quality cocoa powder
    3 tablespoons to 1/4 cup soy milk
    3 tablespoons liquid sweetener. (flavored syrup, or maple syrup works really well)

Directions:

Drain and cut tofu into a few bocks.  Add a few tablespoons of soymilk in a blender and a little bit of tofu, cocoa powder, and syrup.

Blend on puree setting. Continue doing this until all ingredients are well blended, adding soymilk as needed.

Chill covered in the fridge. Can last up to about a week, but water may form on top…just mix it in.

Tastes really good over graham crackers and sliced bananas in a bowl. What an easy way to get some protein in your diet!!  Add a little vegan whipped topping, and AMAZING!

Serves: 4

Preparation time: 10-15 minutes

I added a pinch of salt and some vanilla. I also added more cocoa and some soy chocolate milk. I think this would be better with better cocoa like ghiradelli or some high end cocoa. I used hershey's. It was still good but, I know what better cocoa taste like and this would be dreamier with good cocoa. I also wonder if you use silken tofu, if it would come out i
