Tonight the POT Luck Dinner is ON!

Lisa & I are making

Holiday Chia Pudding

By Kristen Suzanne

Yield 1 1/4 cups


1/4 cup chia seeds

1/4 cup shredded, unsweetened, dried coconut

1 cup water

1/4 cup raw cashews (soaked 1 hour, drained and rinsed)

4 soft medjool dates, pitted

2 cloves

1 teaspoon lucuma powder

1/2 teaspoon powdered ginger

1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract

1/8 teaspoon cinnamon


Place the chia seeds and coconut in a small bowl, briefly stir to mix, and set aside. Blend the remaining ingredients until smooth. Pour the blended cashew mixture into the bowl with the chia seeds and coconut and stir. Wait a few minutes and stir again. (You’ll notice the chia seeds beginning to take on a gelatinous texture.) Wait a few minutes, again, and stir. Do the “wait and stir” once more, and then place the Holiday Chia Pudding in the refrigerator for about 15 - 20 minutes (or longer, if desired). Then, enjoy.
