Craving something sweet and creamy while still being healthy? Chia seed puddings are super versatile and very quick to whip up – vegan, gluten free, dairy free and sure to please almost everyone. Frozen cherries add a pop of beautiful colour and are available all year-round. I encouraged frozen berries and cherries to add variety to your fruit selection, especially in winter when there are fewer fresh options. “Cherry Coconut Chia” also had the alliteration going for it too 🙂
