Well hello.

Love it or hate it I’m back with another fruity, jiggly chia seed pudding recipe!

Last year I whipped up a drool-worthy Strawberries & Coconut Cream Chia Pudding which was honestly beyond lush and just shy of a dream.

A dazzlingly good dream of course–not like the episodes filled with terrifyingly ginormous Harry Potter arachnids and embarrassingly incomplete calculus assignments.

Anyway.

This here treat is quite simple to make anddd it’s packed with protein + fiber with a tropical flair.

Can’t say no to that!

All you have to do is whisk together creamy toasted coconut almond milk, sweet pineapple juice, pure vanilla extract, and our star chia seeds, then let the mixture chill out for a few hours.

Patience peeps.

Stir those plump little seeds up, then layer or top with as much diced pineapple and dry roasted salted macadamia nuts as you like!

Throw some coconut flakes in for an extra special bowl of sunshine.

P.S. For a more decadent affair, use thicccc canned coconut milk along with your pineapple juice. Damn.

P.P.S. I was a lazy lady and utilized organic canned pineapple for my pudding topper (and juice) but feel free to put some of the fresh stuff to work!

P.P.P.S. Yes, chia pudding is reminiscent of frog eggs but is that really a bad thing? Embrace your inner adventurous child… and remember that it’s just a seed.

    Thank you for the recipe ?, I used two cans of crushed pineapple and vanilla almond milk. I’m going to do a Chia pineapple pudding with chunks of fresh watermelon tomorrow.
