Losing weight doesn’t need to be boring. This is one of my favourite high protein recipes, guaranteed to keep you on track with your health and body goals!

The best part about this recipe is it contains all your essential macro-nutrients and is packed with 15gm fibre – over half the daily requirement! Not to mention, it’s easily digestible and will last you until lunch time.

Ingredients;

• 100gms fresh or frozen cherries
• 20gms chocolate protein powder
• 5gms Cacao powder
• 35gm Chia seeds
• ¾ cup unsweetened almond milk
• 10gm Dark chocolate or chocolate chips
• 50gm Vanilla yoghurt – I used YoPro
• Shredded or desiccated coconut

How to make the Chia Pudding

1. Combine the almond milk, coconut, and cacao powder in a jar and shake up with a protein shaker (or Nutribullet/blender).
2. Add the blended mixture to the chia seeds (less clumps if you do it this way!)
3. Leave the mixture to sit for 10-15mins. Stir again.
4. Put it in the fridge now for a minimum of 30-minutes to allow the chia seeds time to expand
5. When you’re ready to eat/serve, add the cherries, chocolate chips and yoghurt

To serve, either:

1. Layer it (like my picture), or
2. Simply place it in a bowl and add the extras on top.

So long as you get all of the flavours in your belly, you will be satisfied!
