Seasonal Recipes to Honour Mother Nature

Inspired by local organic strawberries, this recipe creation became a fusion of “chia pudding meets overnight oats dessert style.”

This recipe is super easy and decadent and a yummy treat for a summer breakfast, lunch or brunch! I loved blending the milk with banana and cashews to make it extra thick and creamy.

Makes 2 portions

Ingredients

1.5 cups dairy free milk (coconut, almond, etc)

2 tbsp local honey or maple syrup

1/2 tsp cinnamon

Pinch of salt

Splash of vanilla

1 ripe banana

2 tbsp whole cashews

1/4 cup chia seeds

1/2 cup of your favourite granola or 1/3 cup of rolled oats and 2 tbsp of pecan pieces

1 cup strawberries, diced

Method

Blend together milk, cinnamon, honey, salt, vanilla, banana and cashews until smooth.

Mix in a bowl with chia, granola and strawberries and mix well.

Place in one glass storage container or divide the 2 portions into medium sized mason jars.

Place in the fridge for 1 hour or overnight!

Optionally, top with shredded coconut, bee pollen, dried fruit, or cacao nibs.
