Tropical Mango Chia Seed Pudding

 Ok, so I know I said that my previous post was going to be my last one for a while, but this recipe is too good not to share.  I love chia seed pudding, but you can only mix almond milk with cinnamon or cocoa powder enough times before you get sick of it.  I decided to get creative and puree my mango that I had already sliced up to create a tropical chia pudding.  This would have been amazing if it was topped with some whipped coconut cream, but I didn’t have any coconut milk!  Next time…

This recipe is free of processed sugar, vegan, dairy, and gluten free.  So for any of you out there following strict diets this is fruity perfection.
