Protein-packed Chia & Flaxseed Breakfast Pot
As we head into warmer days, it’s out with the porridge and in with the overnight breakfast pots. This chia and flaxseed delight is a perfect on-the-go or post-workout breakfast for that protein hit. Chia and flaxseed are both a brilliant source of high-quality protein, omega 3 and fibre, making this a balanced and delicious start to the day. Top with a generous dollop of your favourite nut butter. This also makes a great afternoon snack - if you're a chocolate lover, add 1 tbsp cacao powder for a tasty but nourishing treat.
