Kiwi, Pineapple and Coconut Tropical Chia Pudding
I bought a big batch of kiwi’s the other day. I don’t really eat them that often but they were in season and they looked very alluring. I soon discovered that I bought too many and needed to find a way to use them up before they went off. I found this gorgeous coconut chia pudding that I adapted from “Detox DIY.” I liked the tangy sour of the kiwi and pineapple with the coconut. I often find coconut too fatty and the acidity and sourness helped to cut that back for me. Eating this made me feel right at home in the tropics and I loved getting a good dose of vitamin C in the morning. The recipe is vegan , gluten free and refined sugar free.
