Chocolate Chia Pudding with strawberries recipe

I originally read Born to Run a little after it first came out way back in 2012. But, I bought it on Audible last week to listen to while running. It had been so long since I read the book that it was like a new story! I’ll talk about the book another day but I mention it because that’s where I first heard about chia seeds.

The book is about a tribe of super runners and one of their staple foods is a drink made with chia seeds. The author credits the seeds with giving them a ton of nutrition on the go.

And if you’ve been following RER for a while, you know that another runner super food I love is… chocolate milk! California dairy is a healthy source of protein and the combination of protein and carbs in chocolate milk is great for a post-workout recovery snack. Plus, it’s delicious.

So, I figured – if I put together chocolate milk and chia seeds… it’ll combine to make a super snack that will help fuel you for running and taste like dessert.

It really is good and it’s so easy to make! Try it out and let me know if you feel like you can keep up with the super runners in the book after eating it. Make sure to look for the Real California Milk seal when at the grocery store so you know you’re getting quality, sustainable ingredients made by real people.
