Chia seeds & Muesli Parfait is perhaps, one of the fastest healthy and wholesome breakfast that I have discovered recently.
Breakfast is my comfort meal of the day, I like to experiment with it and continuously eat new, healthy and delicious breakfast. I need my breakfast to be filling and to be balanced and it has to keep me going till about 1 pm because as much as I would like, there is hardly any time for a snack break during crazy work hours. Mornings are also so hurried that breakfast for weekdays has to be done under 20 minutes or at the best 30 minutes. There just isn’t more time to put together a detailed meal on table. As a result, I am on always on a lookout for healthy and delicious quick breakfasts.
Chia seeds & Muesli Parfait is perfect solution that meets all my needs. It is filling and has everything in it to make it a nutritious well balanced meal. If you soak the super food chia seeds the previous night, it takes exactly 10 minutes to put the breakfast on table from start to finish. What else can one ask from a breakfast?
At our home, we have it with regular cow’s milk but if you are vegan or are lactose intolerant, this breakfast works very well with coconut milk or almond milk as well.
Chia seeds are the new superfood, originally from Mexico. They are dense in nutrients like omega 3 fats, proteins, vitamins and minerals. They are supposed to promote healthy skin, reduce the effects of aging and are beneficial to the heart and digestive system.
Oh! and before we go to the recipe, here is another awesome way I discovered to use chia seeds – Jowar Mango Chia Seeds Cake with Sweet Lime Glaze.
