Last night I had the most incredible Thai dessert: mango sticky rice. This dessert had me thinking about what other ways we can replicate this. Thus, this recipe was born — a chia seed pudding that is a quick grab-and-go while retaining its authentic flavour.
Tools:
Small/medium storage containers
Mixing bowl
Chopping board
Knife
Ingredients:
½ cup of chia seeds
¾ cup of coconut milk
¼ cup of honey
A pinch of salt
2-3 mangoes, diced
Optional: granola, chopped nuts, cereal, etc.
Instructions:
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the chia seeds, coconut milk, honey and salt. Thoroughly mix the ingredients together.
- On a chopping board, slice your mangoes into small cubes.
- Assemble your chia seed pudding and diced mangoes in alternating layers. You may choose smaller containers for easier transport or medium containers to maximize fridge space. As long as you make sure it is stored in an airtight container, it should last for up to five days.
- Optionally, you may serve with toppings such as granola, chopped nuts, cereal, etc.
As we get further into the fall term, this is the perfect snack prep for when you are spending most of your days on campus. This also makes a great dessert to wrap up your day… Enjoy the sunshine and make sure to get some fresh air in today! Have fun!
