This is my go-to in the mornings, especially after I started Whole30. (I decided not to eat eggs during the 30 days to see how they were effecting me and now I can stop eating it!)
Full of Omega 3s, fiber and protein, it fills me up, tastes delicious, and makes me feel like I did something really good for myself!
INGREDIENTS
2 cups water
12-14 cashews
3 tbsp hemp seeds
1 medjool date (take the pit out!)

so many possibilities

INSTRUCTIONS
Add 1 cup of water, hemp seeds, cashews and dates to a blender. Blend on high speed for 2-3 minutes, until a smooth milk is made. Add 1 more cup of water, chia seeds, cinnamon and sea salt, and pulse until combined, leaving chia seeds whole. Refrigerate overnight. Keeps well in fridge for 3-4 days. Top with your favorites!
TIP: Some people like their pudding a little thinner. In this case add 2 cups of water with chia seeds rather than 1 cup. Also, I love cinnamon, but you might want to start with 1/2 teaspoon.
My personal favorite combination is a banana, 1/4 cup frozen blueberries for texture, toasted pecans and a sprinkle of cinnamon.
