Nutrition per serving
Ingredients
- 1/4 cup chia seeds

- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 tbsp maple syrup (optional, or stevia to taste)
- 1/2 cup mixed raspberries and blueberries

In a jar or bowl, whisk together the chia seeds, almond milk, vanilla, and sweetener until well combined.
- 2
Let sit for 5 minutes, then stir again to break up any clumps.
