This healthy snack is a cinch to make and you’ll save a ton of money over the store bought chia pouches.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup of fruit of choice (I used organic blueberries – frozen/thawed)
  • 1 cup water (coconut water or coconut milk are tasty options)
  • About 1T of honey or maple syrup (Optional.  Taste your purée before adding sweetener to taste.  My son doesn’t mind these pouches being not-so-sweet).
  • ⅓ cup chia seeds

Instructions

  1. Blend fruit and liquid till smooth.  Add to a bowl/jar.  Add chia seeds and stir to coat.  Soak overnight.  Give the mixture a good stir to combine and spoon into your food pouches.  If this mixture is really thick you can add extra liquid to thin it out.  I tend not to fill the pouches to capacity (my son doesn’t notice) and this mixture will fill about 5-7 of the pouches.  Refrigerate and eat within 2 weeks.  I do keep these cool for longer trips but they have been fine in my purse for a quick snack.
