Introduction

This is a quick and easy hormone-healthy pudding recipe you can have for breakfast, as a snack, or as dessert. You can use different fruit if you'd like. You can choose a different plant-based milk, but soy has more protein (~8g per cup) so I prefer to use that for supporting blood sugar and satiety. Plus, if you're in your premenstrual week, soy protein helps with lesser PMS symptoms!

Ingredients

• 4 tsp chia seeds (you can use black ones which would be great, but the pudding will taste grainier; I like to use white chia seeds in this recipe)
• 1 cup plain soy milk
• 1/2 cup frozen berries (I like wild blueberries but you can use whatever you'd like!)

Optional Toppings

• 1 tbsp coconut flakes or shreds
• Additional fresh fruit
• Ground flax for more fiber
• Chocolate shavings

Instructions

1. Blend fruit and milk together. (If you're using blueberries, the color will be a beautiful purple.)

2. Pour this mixture into a bowl and mix in the chia seeds.

3. Cover the bowl with a lid and refrigerate until set.

4. Before serving, top with your choice of coconut shreds, ground flax, chocolate shavings, or additional fruit.
