Pina Colada Chia Pudding Parfaits with Raspberries (Dairy, Gluten and Refine Sugar Free)

By Irene Shaver @hhwife
Chia seeds are a great source of fibre, calcium, omega-3 fatty acids, iron and manganese.  In other words, great brain and bone food :)  These parfaits are easy to make and make a great breakfast or snack.

Ingredients (serves 3-4)
  • 1 1/4 cup coconut milk (I used canned)
  • 1/4 cup chia seeds
  • 2 tablespoons maple syrup or honey
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla
  • pinch sea salt
  • 1/2-1 cup chopped pineapple
  • 1/2-1 cup chopped raspberries
  • shredded unsweetened coconut for topping

Directions
  1. Make the chia pudding by adding coconut milk, chia, maple syrup, vanilla and sea salt into a bowl and stir to fully combine.  Let sit for set in the fridge for about 1 hour or overnight.  If possible stir once in between so the chia seeds don't stick together.
  2. Layer parfaits with chia, pineapple, raspberries, repeat.  Sprinkle with coconut if desired.
