We get it. You’re busy. Racing out the door to work in the morning with one child’s sport bag in one hand and another child’s science project in the other. It’s no wonder that you haven’t had a chance to think about a gut-friendly breakfast for yourself! 

How about a fuss-free chia pot with fruit and crunchy nuts?

Now, I hear what you’re thinking. If I’m low on time, how am I going to fit this into my morning madness? The answer = Sunday meal prep. Oh, and follow my cheater’s chia recipe below.

Tip a 500g tub of dairy free and lactose free coconut yoghurt into a large tupperware container and add 5 tablespoons of chia seeds and 2 tablespoons of water. Then add diced kiwi fruit strawberries and a handful of blueberries or raspberries. Voila! You’ve now got breakfast prepped for the week! 

If you want to add some crunch, cover a handful of Brazil, macadamia and walnuts with 1 tablespoon of maple syrup and brown lightly in a moderate oven. To keep their crunch, keep these in a locked sandwich bag.

And voila! You’ve now got a gut-friendly, gluten-free, dairy free, lactose free, super breakfast that’s good for you and good for your gut health! And at around 200 nutritionally dense calories, your day will be off to a flying start!

If you want an insta-worthy chia pot, you could follow our recipe for a beautifully presented café-style chia pot here . But who has time for that mid-week!

Of course, for those days when you need things to be super easy, stash a SUPERFLORA shake in your bag so you’ve always got a gut-friendly, calorie-controlled meal on hand.
