INGREDIENTS

–  3 Tbsp. chia seeds
–  160g high-protein yogurt (I used Kalo unsweetened natural Greek yogurt)
–  1 espresso shot
–  1 tsp. cacao powder (I used @selenohealth – use ‘SHEREE10’ for 10% off)
–  ½ serve vanilla protein powder (I used @mitchells.nz – use ‘SHEREE’ for 15% off)

METHOD

  1. In a bowl or jar, mix the chia seeds with the espresso shot, stirring well to prevent clumps.
  2. Add the yoghurt, vanilla protein powder, and mix until smooth.
  3. Let it sit for at least 10 minutes (or overnight for best results) to allow the chia seeds to absorb the liquid and thicken.
  4. Once set, sprinkle cacao powder on top for that true tiramisu vibe. Enjoy!

Serving Suggestions:

  1. Enjoy as a protein-rich breakfast or healthy dessert.
  2. Make it in advance for an easy, grab-and-go option during busy mornings.
