Overnight Blueberry-Chia Pudding Pie Oats

This delicious chia seed pudding is made the night before (takes about 5 minutes after you assemble the ingredients) and popped in the fridge for breakfast. This particular pudding includes both non-dairy milk AND non-dairy yogurt (usually coconut, bought or home-made). It is extra creamy! It really does taste like blueberry pie-- it even has a sprinkle of oats and maybe some almond crumbs or hempseeds as a 'crust'.

The chia seeds soak overnight, so there is no danger of coming across a hard one. Be sure to mix everything well before adding the oat topping and lid and popping in the fridge.

This recipe makes 3 to 6 servings, depending on how big your servings are.

This is a super high fibre pudding, so be sure to drink some water before and throughout the morning.

INGREDIENTS

6 tablespoons Chia Seed

1 cup Non-dairy Milk (We like Silk Coconut Milk or Almond or Soy-- everyone has their favorites)

1 cup Non-dairy Yogurt

1 cup (or more) fresh Blueberries (or other favorite fresh berries)

Splash of Maple Syrup or small amount of other sweetener of your choice

2 tablespoons Oat flakes-- or whatever you like on top.

In a medium size bowl, or large mason jar:

Whisk together the chia, milk and yogurt until smooth.

Fold in the blueberries well.

You can add in a little maple syrup or other sweetener if you are afraid it won't be sweet enough

Spoon or scrape it into individual mason jars or another type of 4-cup container with a lid.

Add the light topping of oats and a drizzle of maple syrup.

Put the lid(s) on and put in the fridge.

Try not to go to the fridge and do a sampling in the middle of the night... you know what I mean.

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 ...
