How can Chocolate Pudding be good for you?

Chia seeds make the best snack on the go and are packed full of nature’s goodness. Not only are Chia seeds rich in protein, they also contain high doses of omega 3 ALA, iron and potassium. Chia seeds also contain 5 times more calcium than milk and 7 times more vitamin C than oranges!

I have also added some delicious cacao powder for that chocolatey flavour. It’s packed full of goodness including extraordinary high levels of magnesium, chromium and iron in addition to having one of the highest levels of antioxidants in any food source!
