Mango Peach Lassi

I mentioned in a previous post that I had the opportunity to try a box of Misfits Market, a Philadelphia-based company that rescues produce from regional farms and distributes it throughout the Northeast. (Check out my last post to learn more about them!)

The box came with an assortment of fruits and vegetables: Mushrooms, Pears, Artichokes, Mango, Lettuce, Bell Peppers, Butternut Squash, Spinach, Corn and Cucumbers. I highlighted the artichokes in my recipe for Baked Stuffed Artichokes, so today I want to share a simple recipe using fresh mango.

I absolutely love mangos, and there is nothing quite like a perfectly ripe mango. They are delicious just on their own, but this recipe for Mango Peach Lassi is a simple make ahead recipe that you can enjoy for breakfast on the go!

Overnight Chia Seed Breakfast Pudding Jars

My husband really likes chia seeds. He will even just add them to water and have them that way. As (un)appealing as that sounds, I’ve been trying to incorporate them into some recipes that make the most of chia seeds while being a bit more… tasty, like this recipe for Overnight Chia Seed Breakfast Pudding Jars.

Chia seeds are pretty bland, so they are easy to add to recipes without impacting taste. When soaked in a liquid, they expand and thicken whatever liquid they are added into, making them perfect for pudding or jam.

This recipe for Chia Seed Breakfast Pudding is an easy make ahead recipe for breakfast on the go. My husband and I just grab one of these pre-made jars and bring with us to work to eat.

Note: this recipe makes 4 (16 oz) jars or 8 (8 oz) jars, depending on how large you want your servings

Ingredients:

  • 1 (32 oz) container Vanilla Greek Yogurt
  • 2 (14 oz) cans light coconut milk
  • 1 cup chia seeds
  • pinch of salt

Optional toppings:

  • granola
  • fresh fruit (I used blueberries and strawberries)
