Mango Coconut Chia Pudding

By
You’ll be hooked once you try out this deliciously creamy mango coconut chia seed pudding. This recipe combines the tasty tropical flavouring of mangoes with the many great health benefits provided by chia seeds to make one outstandingly good pudding that will leave you feeling energised and ready to take on the day.

Chia seeds are wonderful little seeds high in protein, fibre, and healthy omega-3 fats. They can also be added to breakfast smoothies for an added health boost, or my personal favourite, used to make many different types of delicious chia seed puddings. This yummy mango coconut chia pudding can be enjoyed at any time of day, whether as a healthy breakfast option, a midday snack, or as a delightful dessert after dinner. It takes no time at all to prepare; simply spend 10 minutes putting the ingredients together followed by 3-4 hours in the fridge and you’re all set to enjoy this delicious chia pudding.

How to Make Mango Chia Pudding

In a bowl, stir together the oats, coconut milk, chia seeds and honey. Let the mixture sit for about five minutes and then stir again to break up any clumps. Cover and place the mixture in the fridge for at least 3-4 hours. I like to do this step the night before and let it sit in my fridge all night!

While the coconut chia pudding is setting, peel the mango and chop them into small pieces.

To assemble the mango coconut chia pudding, grab two jars, bowls or glasses and spoon chia pudding into each. Top with a layer of mango pieces. Sprinkle with a few pieces of toasted coconut flakes on top and enjoy.

Serves 2
Ingredients
1/2 cup oats
1 cup low fat coconut milk + more if required
2 tbsp chia seeds
1-2 tbsp honey
1/2 mango, diced
1 tbsp toasted coconut flakes for garnish

Method:

  1. In a bowl mix in the oats, chia seeds, coconut milk and honey. After 10 mins, mix it in again. Cover with a lid and place it in the fridge for 3-4 hours or overnight. 
  2. Spoon in the oats chia seeds mix into the serving jar.
  3. Top it with diced mangoes
  4. Garnish with toasted coconut flakes & serve chilled. 


Notes:

  • The mango chia pudding will keep in the fridge for at least 3-4 days so you can meal prep these little cups in advance
  • You can make alternating layers of oats chia seeds mix and diced mango until the serving jar is filled to make it look prettier
  • Add in your choice of dry fruits to it
  • Instead of coconut milk use regular milk or almond milk

Low Calorie No-Bake Chocolate Cheesecake

By
As the post title suggests, Low Calorie No-Bake Chocolate Cheesecake, you must be wondering, if there is chocolate and its a cheesecake, how could it be low calorie - well, its not really low calorie, but it would be definitely lower than an actual "cheesecake" :) This cheesecake is a fast track recipe which can be thrown in within a few minutes. I don't follow the classic baked cheesecake method. I've tried earlier and failed. But later I came across the no-bake cheesecake recipe and that became the base for all kinds of cheesecakes that I have prepared earlier. Coming to the ingredients, I don't use cream cheese which is the base for any cheesecake, because, firstly, its very high in calories and secondly its very not easily available here. So see we saved some calories there, with a little price paid on the taste. However, I can bet most people won't be able to make out the difference whether there is cream cheese or something else. I'm preparing...

Pumpkin Pie Spice Mix Recipe!!!

By
As the leaves start to change color and cheery pumpkins show up on doorsteps, summer seems like a distant memory and we're smack-dab in the middle of fall. And while pumpkin spice-flavored treats make their appearance just about, well, everywhere, do you even know what it contains? Here's what it is and why you should make it at home. (Hint: It's as easy as it gets!) Guess What? There's No Pumpkin in Pumpkin Spice! For years, I thought pumpkin pie spice actually had pumpkin in it. Silly me. How on earth would you get pumpkin in there? Dehydrate and powder it? In any case, pumpkin pie spice is simply a blend of the traditional spices that go into a good ol' fashioned pumpkin pie. What's in Pumpkin Pie Spice? If you go the store-bought route, pumpkin pie spice blends can vary by manufacturer, but typically contain the more sweet-smelling spices, like cinnamon, nutmeg, clove, and ginger. Allspice and mace are also common ingredients. Why Should ...
