It’s autumn; time to eat some healthy comfort food!!! So time for this breakfast; chocolate chia pudding with pear. I try to eat the seasonal veggies and fruits; cheaper and fresher than eating strawberries all year. I love pears; they are not a super food and don’t contain the most vitamin C but gives you sufficient vitamins and minerals anyway. They are juicy, fresh and full of fibers and go very well with chocolate. The chocolate will give you the antioxidants and the most important dopamine. The dopamine increases your sense of happiness and ability to concentrate; that is what we need in these dark days!! So enjoy this lovely easy chia pudding chocolate breakfast!!!
