Oh hey there Monday! So, without sounding too “jumpy,” um…. where the the heck was chia pudding 5 years ago? Or even 7 years ago when I was traveling from race to race with my husband and living out of a cooler and making travel protein shakes (which always got clumpy).  I mean, don’t get me wrong, I was very inventive with our race/travel eats, but dang.. if I had known about chia pudding, vegan chia pudding, or smoothies with chia, we probably would have saved some extra cash and saved our taste buds from chalky dry protein bars at the gas station or $8 smoothie at the airport.

Which is why I think vegan chia pudding (or any kind of chia seed pudding for that matter) can solve ALL our problems. Especially Peaches and Cream Vegan Chia pudding…. I mean Peaches ‘n Cream (said with my Texas accent).

Okay Yes, I am exaggerating a wee bit overly excited about protein and chia pudding, but you get my point.

Haha, or so I like to think.

You see, chia pudding is such a great balance of healthy fats, plant based protein, and omega-3, calcium.  All the key nutrients you need in a recovery snack/mini meal, or even as a healthy breakfast to go!

Now throw in some fresh fruit and you’ve got the another perfect balance of glycogen (sugars/carbs) to feed those hard working muscles and Vitamins (Anti-oxidants) to boost your micronutrient intake.

Are you bored yet? Nah.. you secretly love my nerdy nutrition talk, just admit it.

Okay, but really. That little chia seed can pack a lot of nutritious punch in a small amount of ANY liquid.

Now you see where I’m with this, right?

You NEED CHIA pudding in your life!!!

But not just any chia pudding. Nope.

One that’s a step UP from the original cha cha cha chia cup. One that tastes like dessert. One that is naturally sweetened. One that has extra protein. One that is vegan, gluten free, grain free, etc. etc. etc.

 

This recipe –> Peaches N’ Cream Vegan Chia Pudding with Extra Protein.….or what I like to call “Modern Day Vegan Chia Pudding.” Portable, delicious, and EXTRA nutritious.  Emphasis on the EXTRA!

What’s the extra? Oh glad you asked.

The Extra being a quality Protein source that’s EASY TO MIX and can actually help with digestion.

Better Body Food LIVfit Plant protein. Made with Organic Pea Protein, Organic Quinoa Protein (which has all 9 essential amino acids), and agave inulin fiber.

LivFIT packs 15 grams of protein, 80 calories, and 0 grams sugar into 2 scoops. Which is why it’s a great EXTRA (addition) to a this vegan chia pudding.

Now here’s where it gets even more AWESOME. The agave inulin fiber acts a  PREBIOTIC. Remember my LOVE for peas and PREBIOTICS ?

Yes, This means it’s a real food FIBER that ferments in the gut and FEEDS the HEALTHY gut bacteria. Combine that with the chia seed that creates gel-forming substance and soluble fiber, chia seeds can ALSO work as a prebiotic —> AGAIN supporting the growth of probiotics in the gut.

Did I lose you?

Sorry, I get al PUMPED for Prebotic, Probiotic, and plant based PROTEIN talk!

But I think I got my point across. This Protein packed Peaches and Cream Chia pudding is healthy for digestion, muscle recovery, and all that  … EXTRA

Speaking of plant based Goodness in a BOWL… this peaches n’ Kale smoothie bowl from Eat Your Way Clean sounds like another winner. Peachy KEEN and all the greens!

Okay thanks for hearing me out. Now let’s get our chia pudding making game on!

All you need to do is blend it up creamy coconut milk, fresh summer peaches, organic agave  nectar, bourbon vanilla, and better body foods vegan protein. Add this to 1/4 cup chia seeds. Then let is sit for 15 minutes or even overnight.

Once it’s all “pumped up,” top with sliced peaches and a few more tablespoons of coconut cream.

One last nerdy nutrition fact. This one has to do with the peaches.

Fact – Fresh peaches contain an oxygen radical absorbance capacity (ORAC) value of 1814 on the scale (meaning it’s great for fighting oxidative stress).

But…guess what happens when you buy the store bought can with heavy syrup? The ORAC score drops down to  436. Crazy, right?

Needless to say, take advantage of FRESH PEACHES ALL SUMMER LONG!

      Same here! I love peaches but the fructose gets me. But if I use them in a recipe, like this one, that combines with a fat and is more spread out within servings, I’m all good! Phew!

    Chia pudding was so critical to the few months where we were trying to help Dave heal from some pretty severe stomach issues and was on a candida protocol. I’ve been waiting to buy peaches since we will be out of town visiting Austin this week and it always seems to take a few days for peaches to be perfect and I know that would be my luck that they wouldnl’t be good before we left. They are on my grocery list for next week though YUM!!

    You are a total nerd… and I am a Georgia Peach. 😉

    I got on a peach chia kick a few years ago at the height of peach season… and now I’m seeing it in my future. I just realized Vegas has NEVER had chia pudding!

    I’d take this over a protein bar any day! And you’re seriously the QUEEN of all this pro and prebiotic. I was going to say the queen of gut health, but the former seems to sound a little nicer 😆 I also need more peaches in my life. I haven’t been seeing them yet…

    Not do confessional confession: I like it when corny nerdy Cotter comes on stage. In other words nutrition nerds unite! I choose food by taste preferences but educating myself about how powerful they are makes things all the better. It’s good to know you’re doing yourself good with your choices. And this chia creation is a beauty with benefits.

    I recently made something similar, I was going to use tinned peaches (no fresh ones available at the moment) but I forgot to buy them. So I used pre-soaked dried apricots. It turned out delicious.
