Colon-Cleansing High-Fiber Chia Pudding
Chia seeds soaked overnight in almond milk until thick and pudding-like, then topped with fresh berries for a fiber-rich make-ahead breakfast.
Servings
2 cups
Prep
10 min
The only real effort here is stirring — chia seeds do the rest, thickening the almond milk into a spoonable pudding as they sit in the fridge overnight.
Chia seeds are one of the more fiber-dense foods around, which is why this pudding is tagged for detox and cleanse routines; fiber-rich breakfasts like this one are a common part of that kind of eating pattern. Fresh berries on top add natural sweetness and a bit of color, while the optional flaxseed adds even more fiber.
Give it a good stir before serving, since the chia seeds can settle as they sit.
