Summary

Ocean’s Blueberry Chia Porridge is the ideal choice for a nourishing breakfast or a delicious snack at any time. This simple dish is loaded with the goodness of chia seeds and blueberries, both celebrated as superfoods. When soaked, chia seeds swell into tender pearls with a crunch at their core. They’re a rich source of omega-3 fatty acids and provide plenty of fiber and protein. The addition of blueberries boosts the nutritional value even further. Each serving of this porridge delivers 5 grams of omega-3 fatty acids, 13 grams of fiber, and over 8 grams of protein, along with an abundance of antioxidants and flavonoids. It’s a wonderfully energizing way to start your day or to recharge anytime!
