Canteloupe Chia Seed Pudding


Canteloupe Chia Seed Pudding is the chia seed recipe you didn’t know you needed in your life. It is both refreshing and satisfying. It can be great breakfast item or a perfect summer snack.

Chia seeds have great nutritional value. They are a valuable source of protein and contain amino acids. It is said that they help stabilize blood sugar levels, and help you keep your energy levels up! Now who doesn’t need more of that?

Taking a juicy canteloupe and blending it with almond milk gives this chia seed pudding a unique flavor. I feel like most people wouldn’t think of turning any type of melon into a pudding like consistency. But I am so glad I did!
