Chia and Fruit Bowl Breakfast

This is one of the easiest breakfasts you might indulge in, if you have access to fresh ingredients....

Chia & Fruit Bowl Breakfast:

1 - 2 T chia seeds

1 - 2 c fresh fruit (bananas, strawberries, papaya, mango, blueberries, blackberries, raspberries)

1/4 c light coconut milk or almond milk

1 - 1.5 c water

*We recommend use of organic ingredients where possible.

Mix 1-2 T chia seeds with 1-1.5 c water and let soak.

Meanwhile simply slice up as much fruit as you desire and place into a bowl.  (The dish above contains bananas, blueberries, and strawberries.)

Once about 10 minutes have passed and your chia seeds are swelled with moisture from the water, pour them over the fruit.  Add the light coconut milk on top and slurp up!  (NOTE: almond milk will suffice as a replacement for coconut milk.)

Banana Coconut Cream Dream Pie - Dessert!

The ultimate recipe for the ultimate banana coconut cream pie.  This culinary concoction is vegan, low sugar, and gluten-free.  If divided into ten slices, each slice weighs in with approximately 8 grams of protein, 33 grams of carbohydrates, and a massive 34 grams of fat, 18 of which are saturated...to quote President Obama, "I believe that is the point."

Banana-Coconut Cream Filling:
3 medium bananas
3.5 c light coconut milk
1/4 c corn starch
1/2 c granulated sugar
1 T coconut oil
2/3 c unsweetened shredded coconut

Vegan, Grain-Free, Gluten-Free Pie Crust:
1.5 c almond meal/slivers (use any ratio you'd like; 1 c meal + 0.5 c slivers works well)
1 c unsweetened shredded coconut
1 T coconut oil
1/4 tsp salt

Cashew Cream Icing:
1 c raw cashews
1 c light coconut milk
1 T granulated sugar
1/3 c unsweetened flaked coconut
