I'm a teacher and I have to say that you are an excellent teacher. The way you presented the recipes, from speaking slowly and clearly, to writing out the instructions, and showing everything step by step--those are all the best teacher practices that I have been taught. This was awesome to watch, thank you!

I make cashew milk for my chia pudding. 1 cup raw cashews covered with water refrigerated over night. Drain next morning, dump in blender and add 4 cups water and 1-3 seeded dates. Blend on high for 2 minutes. I top the chia pudding with fresh berries. Love it.
-
Frozen mango chunks are shockingly good and easy to use, when you can't get fresh or don't want to bother cutting them.
-
THANK YOU for the 5 minute stirring rule! No one has ever shared that that I've seen!
-
I've always failed at chia pudding because I was unaware of the "5 minute rest and repeat" rule. Thank you for that vital piece of info. Now I'm about to make chia pudding a staple in my diet again!
-
If you grind your chia, it goes further. I love these they look amazing
-
If you don't like the seed texture, use ground chia for a smooth recipe. You can buy it pre-ground or just grind it in a coffee grinder or blender, before using in your recipe! 🙂👍
-
Yes, I will try. Thank you.
-
And if you use a neutral flavor sweetener instead of maple (such as agave) and the add a little real vanilla extract to the base mixture, it taste almost exactly like smooth tapioca pudding. To get an exact match on real tapioca pudding flavor, you would have to used cane sugar. But I think the idea here is to avoid that in the diet.

This is exactly what I needed for healthy snacks. Thanks so much
-

Tapioca is how I think of it. I soak it then cook like oatmeal and a tablespoon of cream on top. Very filling.
