text: Home » Breakfast » Fruity Chia Porridge
  I love finding recipes that I can add to the weekly menu, and this is one of them. It is creamy, smooth, light, fruity and very filling. If you are new to using chia seeds, they are amazing. Not so much in taste, in fact, they don't have any taste. But they benefit the body by delivering maximum nutrients with minimum calories, promotes digestion, and energy.
  Soak the chia seeds in 1/2 -1 cup of water for at least 30 minutes prior to adding to the rest of the ingredients. You could even soak overnight, so you are ready for the morning.
  If you use 1/2 cup of water, the porridge will be very thick. If you want it thinner, you can always blend in more water later.
  Once the seeds are done soaking, place them in the blender along with the apple, banana, strawberries, and cinnamon. Blend until creamy… this is a good time to add more water if you want to thin it out some.

  Tried this this morning and it was so good! And easy, too. My stomach had been feeling kind of upset, so I wanted something that was easy to digest and might help me feel better. Chia porridge seemed to do the trick! Thanks!
  Hello Hazel, I am sorry that you weren't feeling so good. Feeling better now? I just love chia!!!
  My oh my oh my!!! Just made this for the second time and had to get on here immediately and thank you! I have missed my porridge and dreamt of finding an alternative to oats and here it is!

  How many does this recipe serve? I'm supposing one or two…I have a wonderful opportunity to prepare raw living foods to a film cast and crew and need to know how many times to double this. Thank you.
  This is a single serving Luda. Good luck with your catering job! amie sue
  How many cups of water should I soak the chia seeds in for 2 people? I'm very new to raw foods.

  hola porque se ve tan oscura la receta? pareciera que tiene cacao
  No cacao was used. It might have been the lighting when I took the picture 11 years ago. :) blessings, amie sue
