Chocolate Chia Pudding Featuring Pea Protein

I enjoy making chia pudding for breakfast, snacks, or a dessert. I modify the recipe just a bit when making a breakfast chia pudding vs a dessert chia pudding.

The process is simple...it's as easy as 1-2-3...4! You just need a bit of patience to allow the chia and liquids to combine and create the pudding-like texture.

Ingredients:
2 RIPE bananas (the riper...the more naturally sweet the pudding is)
2 cups dark chocolate almond milk (or milk of choice)
1 packet Nutrasumma Chocolate PeaProtein
1/3 cup chia seeds (organic if possible)

NOTE: You can always ADD more liquid if you want a thinner consistency pudding. You be the judge after it sets. This comes out very close to store bought instant pudding packages. 

Optional for dessert:

• 1/2 cup shredded coconut (I use unsweetened)
• 2-4 TBSP Honey if you wish additional sweet flavor (taste test first to see how you wish to customize this recipe)
• OPTIONAL: Garnish with banana slices,  dark chocolate slivers, and coconut

Instructions:

• Mash the bananas
• Add chia seeds and Nutrasumma Cocolate Pea Protein and stir to combine
• Add the liquid and stir to combine 
• Add optional ingredients if you wish to make it dessert
• Refrigerate (covered) for at least 30-60 minutes to form the pudding consistency
• Serve in a bowl, cup, or custard dish
