½ cup chia seeds
1 tsp cinnamon

OPTIONAL ADD-INs/ONs:
– Add in: 2-3 Tbs raw agave (or maple syrup, raw honey, liquid stevia or coconut palm sugar) to sweeten it up (do not include if you’re cleansing)
– Add in: raw cocoa to make it chocolaty + reap the antioxidants!
– Add on: sliced apple, berries, dates, sliced almonds, pistachios, cashews, walnuts, hemp seeds (for extra protein), extra cinnamon (heart healthy + brings out sweet flavors), nutmeg, cayenne (rev up metabolism, spice-it-up)!

DIRECTIONS:
1. Combine all ingredients together

2. Shake it all up!

2. Chill for at least 2-4 hours (overnight is preferred) until tapioca-like pudding consistency.

BENEFITS of CHIA aka “nutrition sprinkles”!
– high in fiber, antioxidants, omega 3s
– highly energizing (great for pre-workout or the AM)
– powerful superfood
– shake it up in some water = a great sports drink!
– pretty tasteless so add to oatmeal, toast w/almond butter, smoothies, salads, soups, baked goods
– can eat raw or cook with them!

be sweet. be creative. be well.
