Good Summer Morning Chia Pudding



Here is a fast and easy Chia Pudding that is perfect for breakfast (or as dessert, etc etc etc).  Chia pudd fans will know what I mean...

 .                               .
The Recipe is pretty simple.  You can vary it as you like, but this combination is a winner at our home and I think we will continue to use this as a standard for a simple breakfast pudding.


I start by gathering together the ingredients and a wide-mouth Mason Jar with a lid.
The ingredients are:
  • 1/4 C. Chia Seed
  • 1/4 C. Liquid Honey (or other sweetener of choice)
  • 1/2 tspn. Vanilla Extract
  • 2 C. Soy Milk (or other non-dairy milk)
  • Strawberries and Blueberries (or other fruit/berry combinations) as you like

          
THE METHOD
  1. Put all the above ingredients (in order) into a quart-size Mason Jar
  2. Whisk ingredients together until thoroughly mixed, paying attention to bottom sticky seeds
  3. Put lid on jar and place in fridge overnight (or at least 4 hours.)
  4. Scoop pudding into small bowls or small jars (1/2 pint) and serve
Not sure why the 
Mason Jar method
works well, but it  
seems to do the trick...
The whole glom melds
together and there are
no big lumps if you 
do a thorough whisking 
at the start.
Enjoy!!

Colcannon (Irish Mashed Potatoes) and 3 Ethnic Take-Offs

Colcannon is a lovely Irish traditional mix of boiled cabbage or kale along with a root vegetable, usually mashed potatoes, but sometimes turnip, or carrots. Leaks and/or onions, and garlic, are pretty popular additions. Chopped green onions, chives and/or parsley are often used as a stirred-in garnish. You will also find 3 other Colcannon-type recipes-- take-offs of cultural classics with potatoes and greens from Mexico, Zambian and Ukrainian are sure to delight you as well when you want to try something a little different. These are all delicious, healthy comfort foods! I am vegan, so all of the recipes are vegan colcannon-- no dairy butter or milk involved. The following are ingredients in the colcannon I made (Missing from the picture are water, garlic, pepper, oil, and fine sea salt): Lovely Colcannon: potatoes, cabbage, leaks, green onions, and parsley INGREDIENTS (2-4 servings) 3 T.   (30 mg)  Olive Oil (or water, or coconut oil) 1/2 Cabbage , shredded ...

Pan-Fry Carrots (Roast Carrot Sticks)

Pan-roasted carrots (with some potato fries mixed in) Our younger son--at one time in the life he styled as "Nomad Farmer"-- lived and grew organic vegetables, fruit and berries on an off-grid community farm in the interior of BC.  We stopped in to see him the one time and came away with a load of over-wintered carrots, still as carrot-y flavoured and plump as on the day they were dug from the ground, thanks to the hill-side root crop storage cellar.   Our granddaughters opted for fish and chips today for lunch, and some of the 'chips' were carrot chips.  They are also a great base for a roast carrot soup.  When you roast veggies, you get extra delicious flavour.  You will also find two wonderful recipes for Holiday carrot side dishes-- Maple-glazed roasted carrots with a recipe for a lemony vegan sauce (made with cashews) and Lemon-Herb roasted carrots made with a Pecan Relish recipe, PAN-FRY CARROTS (Roast Carrot Sticks) <more properly ...
