This easy lemon chia protein pudding is a refreshing and healthy breakfast that’s packed with protein and fiber to fuel your day. Make a couple extra while you’ve got the ingredients out for an easy breakfast meal prep!

If you need a new delicious healthy breakfast idea, this is it. Just one serving has 41 grams of protein and 10 grams of fiber. Chia seeds also provide omega 3’s, prebiotics, and antioxidants. Oh, and you’re also getting vitamin C from the lemon juice! Here’s everything you’ll need and how to make it.

What You’ll Need

Equipment

• Meal prep jars: Optional, if making multiple.

Ingredients

• Unsweetened almond milk: Or milk of choice.
• Non-fat plain greek yogurt
• Maple syrup: I use sugar free – can sub sweetener of choice.
• Lemons: Juice and zest.
• Vanilla protein powder: I love the 1UP Nutrition vanilla ice cream protein (use code “Jaycee” for 20% off).
• Turmeric powder: Optional, for color.
• Chia seeds

How To Make It

1. Add milk, yogurt, syrup, lemon juice, lemon zest, protein powder and turmeric (optional) to a small cup or container and mix. Stir in chia seeds and let sit for 5 minutes so the chia seeds start to gel.
2. Stir again to break up any clumps, then store in the fridge overnight or minimum of 2 hours. Top with more lemon zest and/or blueberries if desired and enjoy!

To Store/Meal Prep

While I’ve got the ingredients out, I like to make a few more in these cute glass jars from Amazon. Store up to 4 days.
