Raw Chia Seed Dalia
I remember my mother used to cook dalia with wheat, milk
and sugar when I was a child considering it to be healthy and
easy to digest. But I was not fond of it. So I would just eat a
few spoons just to please her.
When I first prepared raw and vegan dalia with chia seed and
classic almond milk and offered it to my husband he became
an instant fan of it. He started considering it as his ideal
power packed breakfast as it is nutritious, filling and delicious.
This sugar free, gluten free, grain free, dairy free, soy-free,
oil free raw vegan recipe doesn’t require any cooking at all; it
just needs a few minutes rest to give the chia seeds time to
plump up. You can prepare it instantly or make it beforehand
and keep it in the fridge to have later. Top it with fresh,
seasonal fruits to add natural sweetness and texture. Enjoy
this for breakfast, dessert, or as a snack.
ALMOND CHIA SEED DALIA
This creamy, delicious and healthy chia seed pudding in
unsweetened almond milk is packed with protein,
Omega-3, antioxidants and calcium. Since chia seeds
absorb up to 10 times their weight in water, they help to
stay hydrated.
INGREDIENTS
2 cups almond milk or any other plant-based milk
4 tbsp chia seeds
8 dates
4 dry figs
1 mango
INSTRUCTIONS
In a medium size working bowl take 3 tablespoons of chia seeds and a little
almond milk. Stir it well and let it sit for about 3-5 minutes to let the seeds
swell and form a gel like texture.
Now add some more almond milk, stir again nicely and let it sit for another
5 mins to let them swell up more.
Add some more almond milk if required to get the desired consistency.
Recipe Notes
You can also add other similar fruits like strawberries, plum, green and or
black grapes as per season and your geographical location.
