Mango Coconut Chia Pudding is my favorite flavor in the set! A super easy paleo breakfast with tropical vibes that is worth waking up for. This gluten and dairy-free recipe can be made with thawed frozen mango for a tasty treat year around!
Chia pudding became a favorite gluten-free breakfast and snack during my year of travel! It's the quickest healthy breakfast option -- chia seeds are lightweight and nutrient-packed, and the milk can be super versatile. I usually make chia puddings overnight to take along the next day.
Once I switched from cycle touring to van life, I leveled-up to include several amazing flavors. I'm so excited to share this one with you -- Mango Coconut Chia Pudding is my favorite!
