Chocolate Lavender Chia Pudding Recipe (Dairy Free, Vegan)

Chocolate Lavender Chia Pudding Recipe (Dairy Free, Vegan)

Chocolate and lavender are one of my favorite flavor combinations, but I’ve mostly tasted it before in truffles (which I make sure to include regularly as part of my balanced diet 🙂 ).  This Chocolate Lavender Chia Pudding recipe brings the decadence of dessert to breakfast – it’s so rich and creamy and decadent and dessert like that it’s insane that is passes as a morning food, but it does – it’s refined sugar free, gluten free, dairy free and packed with Omega-3s, protein and fiber.

The best part – you make the whole thing the night before, so in the morning, you can just grab it and go.  This would also work wonderfully as a dessert – just blend it all together until smooth after the chia sets.
