-

Optional Toppings
Directions
Add the milk of your choice to a bowl or jar.
Whisk in the chia seeds, turmeric, cinnamon, ginger, black pepper, and pea protein until fully combined and smooth.
Let the mixture sit for 5 minutes, then whisk again to prevent clumping.
Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or overnight, until thick and pudding-like.
Stir well before serving. Add a splash of milk if needed to reach your desired consistency.
Optionally top with chopped mango and pumpkin seeds for added nutrition, texture, and a boost of vitamin C and zinc.
