Instructions
In a mixing bowl or jar, combine the 60 g(½cups) chia seeds, 200 g(1cups) coconut yogurt, 60 ml(¼cups) coconut milk, 30 ml(2tablespoon) maple syrup, 1 tsp blue spirulina (optional) and 75 g(½cups) blueberries (don't worry about squishing them).
Cover and let sit for at least 2 hours, preferably overnight, in the fridge. Stir after 10–15 minutes to prevent clumping. The chia seeds will absorb the liquid and create a thick, pudding-like consistency.
Once the chia pudding has thickened, stir again to ensure an even texture. Layer with 75 g(½cups) blueberries and 100 g(½cups) coconut yoghurt across the 2 serves.
