An overnight parfait full of superfoods and 8 grams of protein per serving! A little preparation at night creates a quick and easy on-the-go breakfast!

Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup unsweetened vanilla almond milk
  • 2 Tbsp. + 1/2 Tbsp. chia seeds, divided
  • zest of half a lemon
  • 3/4 cup frozen blueberries
  • 1 Tbsp. freshly squeezed lemon juice
  • 1+ tsp. pure maple syrup (or to taste)
  • 1/2 tsp. pure vanilla extract
  • 1 pinch salt

Instructions

  1. Combine almond milk, 2 Tbsp. chia seeds, and lemon zest in a bowl. Stir to combine. Place the bowl in the fridge to thicken overnight. If you can, check back periodically and give the mixture a good stir to break up the chia seed clumps that will form.
  2. In a small pot, combine blueberries, lemon juice, and maple syrup. Bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer, allowing the mixture to reduce by about half. Once reduced, remove from heat and stir in vanilla, salt, and 1/2 Tbsp. chia seeds. Give the mixture a taste (be careful…it will be hot!) to adjust maple syrup amount. Place in a glass bowl in the fridge to chill overnight.
  3. The following morning, give both mixtures a good stir. Layer the mixtures together in a mason jar and garnish with a slice of lemon and additional maple syrup if desired. Recipe makes one parfait but can easily be doubled.
