You crave chocolate but are trying to eat healthy? You don't have time to cook, but would love to have a healthy pick me up in the fridge for the next 3 days? Get your ingredients and try this super simple recipe, that was specifically designed to balance your hormones, your mood, and drive your energy. And without the guilt of eating chocolate!

Ingredients

• 1 cup Coconut Milk
• 1 cup Nutmilk (I like cashew)
• 1/2 cup chia seeds
• 2 tbsp Cacao powder ( Raw, unsweetened)
• 1 Tbsp Maca powder
• 1 Tbsp Hemp seeds
• 1 tsp Raw Honey (or 2 if you like it sweeter)
• (option to add a pinch of sea salt, and top with Raw cacao nibs)

Instructions

1. Place all ingredients in a large bowl.
2. Whisk until powders are well blended.
3. pour the chia puddings into individual single cups and leave in the fridge for 15-30min, before consuming! The chia will expend and the mixture will be firmer!
4. Enjoy your decadent yet health promoting dessert! It conserves well for up to 3 days in the fridge.

DID YOU KNOW?

1. 100% raw cacao: contains high levels of Magnesium, which helps to reduce stress levels, irritability, anxiety levels and improves sleep.
2. Maca powder: increases libido and energy, support healthy blood pressure, improves skin health.
3. Chia & Hemp seeds: contain omega 3 and 6, and phytoestrogens, so important to reduce inflammation and promote healthy hormone production. In particular, gamma-linolenic acid, is an essential fatty acid that helps with PMS and mood swings.
