Chia pudding originates from Central America, where the ancient Mayan and Aztec civilizations recognized chia seeds' nutritional value. This version adds a tropical twist, combining chia' health benefits with the vibrant flavors of mango and coconut.
This pudding was inspired by my vacation to Hawaii, where I discovered the amazing combination of mango and coconut. It' an ideal breakfast option or a refreshing dessert for those warm summer days.
