Chia seeds create a creamy consistency in this fruit-sweetened pudding, and provide steady energy to fuel your morning. This can easily be made with other fruits if peaches aren’t available, and is delicious made with blueberries, strawberries, cherries or mangoes. Frozen fruit can also be used in place of fresh- just be sure to thaw it before blending.
