Best breakfast recipe for vegans!!
This chia porridge tastes like desert! It is decadent! It is an absolute must to make this recipe! It tastes excellent and it is healthy! I used unsweetened 30 calorie almond milk and it will work just fine. The dates will do the job of sweetening the dish.

Really bad taste
I completed this as described and it had a really bad taste. I even added a banana to mask the taste and it still tasted bad.

Keto Alternative to Muesli or Oatmeal
I am in a Keto diet (high fat, low carb). I am always looking for SIMPLE, FAST and CONVENIENT recipes. SIMPLE - no complicated ingredients (substituted organic coconut for the dates for sweetness and density). FAST - pour and blend. CONVENIENT - prep the night for a morning delight. You can get creative. I added seeds, other nuts (yes even almonds, overnight to make it soft) and cacao nibs.
