This healthy Orange Creamsicle Chia Pudding is a simple and easy breakfast. Made with almond milk, orange juice, and chia seeds, it has a wonderful orange-vanilla flavor.
This Orange Creamsicle Chia Pudding is a great way to start your day. It's not only easy but healthy as well. Chia seeds are highly nutritious. They are high in fiber, protein, and omega-3s.
Orange and vanilla are a match made in heaven. Whoever came up with the orange creamsicle was a genius. I remember eating creamsicles as a kid and loving the combo.
Chia pudding is the perfect vegan snack for road trips and traveling. You can travel with chia seeds on a plane and buy almond milk when you get to your destination. You can also travel with shelf-stable almond milk.
Add chopped fruit or peanut butter and you have breakfast. Since chia seeds are high in fiber and protein, you will feel satiated for a while.
