If you’re planning a big brunch menu, this matcha-based chia pudding recipe is ideal, since it needs to be made ahead of time (and only requires a blender).
Ingredients
2 cups almond or soy milk
1 cup baby spinach
1 ripe banana
2 tbsp honey or maple syrup
1 1/2 tsp matcha green tea powder
pinch of salt
1/3 cup chia seeds
Garnish
1 banana, peeled and thinly sliced
1 orange, peeled with a knife and cut into segments
Mixed berries
Instructions
WHIRL almond milk, spinach, banana, honey, matcha and salt in a blender until smooth. Stir in chia seeds and pour into 6 small jars or glasses. Cover and refrigerate until mixture thickens like a pudding, at least 6 hours, preferably overnight.
TOP with banana slices, orange segments and berries just before serving.
