I love chocolate, particularly dark chocolate...mmm…yummy!

I also like quick easy to make trail breakfasts, you know the ones that don’t take any cooking, don’t take much time to prepare and don’t make any dishes that need to be cleaned up.  That is why I like chocolate chia breakfast pudding and I think you will like it too.

To eat your trail breakfast, simply remove the Carnation® Breakfast Essentials drink pouch from the Ziploc® style freezer bag, tear it open, pour the drink powder back into the Ziploc® bag, and add ½ cup of water.  Seal up the Ziploc® bag and shake it up until it is fully mixed.  Let it sit for three to five minutes, then pull out your spoon, open the bag, dig in and enjoy!


Notes
1  You can substitute 2 Tbsp of chia seeds and 2 Tbsp of milled flax seeds for the 4 Tbsp of chia seeds, if you wish
