Description
Creamy chia seed breakfast bowl with Greek yogurt, berries, and hemp hearts. A balanced meal prep breakfast with protein, fiber, and healthy fats.
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons chia seeds
- 1/2 cup milk (whole milk recommended for creaminess)
- 1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt
- 1-2 tablespoons hemp hearts
- 1/2-3/4 cup berries (such as blueberries, raspberries, or a mix)
- 1 teaspoon maple syrup (optional)
Instructions
1️⃣ Combine the base
In a bowl or jar, add the chia seeds, hemp hearts, milk, Greek yogurt, and optional maple syrup.
2️⃣ Stir well
Stir thoroughly until the chia seeds are evenly distributed and the yogurt is fully incorporated.
3️⃣ Stir again after a few minutes
Let the mixture rest for 15 minutes, then whisk again to break up any clumps. Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours (or overnight) until thick and creamy. If possible, give it one more quick stir while chilling to prevent clumping.
4️⃣ Chill
Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the chia seeds to absorb the liquid and thicken. Doing this also optimizes nutrient bioavailability.
5️⃣ Add berries and enjoy!
When ready to eat, top with fresh berries and other toppings.
