Make this pudding before you go to bed, and you will wake up to an omega-rich treat ready to go. Hemp Hearts and chia seeds both contain heart-healthy omega-3 fats, which play a crucial role in keeping inflammation under control. Two tablespoons of Hemp Hearts have 7 to 11 grams of complete protein; 2 tablespoons of chia seeds have 5 grams of fiber.
Ingredients

- ½ cup chia seeds
- ¼ cup raw cacao powder

- 1 tsp ground cinnamon
- 1 tsp ground ginger
- ¼ tsp pink rock or gray sea salt
To Serve (optional)
