Berry Chia Parfait
Chia pudding is so easy to make and delicious! Chia seeds are high in protein, fiber, and omega-3 fatty acids which are excellent for brain and heart health, not to mention anti-inflammatory. And berries are so full of antioxidants, you'll want to consume them every day! Here's a delicious way to do just that! Using frozen bananas provides a surprisingly creamy texture to your parfait. Easy, low-fat, and delicious! Who could ask for more? Don't forget to include our Buckwheat Cinnamon Crunch Granola and either Mighty Mocha or Double Chocolate Cookies for a really amazing treat!
