Chia Pudding Yogurt Parfait | Breakfast Meal Prep
Good morning! Let’s have breakfast.
Ingredients:
• Can of coconut milk
• Chia seeds
• Honey
• Greek yogurt
• Fruit (frozen or fresh)
• Granola (optional)
Directions:
1. Combine coconut milk with chia seeds in a lidded container. I used 4 and 1/2 tablespoons for a 13.5oz can of coconut milk. You can separate the mix now, as I did in the pictures, or you can do this later. Mix and let chill in the fridge overnight (or at least for a few hours)
2. Once the chia seeds have formed a pudding, separate them into smaller containers if you haven’t already. Top them with fresh or frozen fruit. Store in the fridge until you’re ready to eat.
3. When you’re ready to eat, top with Greek yogurt, honey, and granola. Enjoy!
Additional tips: You can store the yogurt in the individual parfaits ahead of time, but I find that the ingredients in Greek yogurt separate over time, leaving the parfait watery.

Chia pudding is not just a delicious breakfast; it's packed with nutrients that promote health and wellness. Chia seeds are rich in omega-3 fatty acids, fiber, and antioxidants. These tiny seeds can help support digestive health and weight management. When combined with Greek yogurt, they create a creamy and satisfying dish that's also high in protein. For those looking to vary their parfaits, consider experimenting with different fruits such as berries, bananas, or mangoes, which can add natural sweetness and vitamins. Additionally, using granola as a topping not only adds a crunchy texture but also provides complex carbohydrates for sustained energy throughout the morning. Meal prepping this parfait is super convenient; just prepare several servings in advance and store them in the fridge. Remember to layer ingredients to prevent sogginess in your parfait. Enjoy this nourishing recipe as a quick breakfast option that's both easy to prepare and incredibly tasty!
