Layered vegan chia oatmeal: a healthy breakfast parfait

This breakfast parfait, or pudding, is a dense and filling breakfast option while not being too heavy. Loaded with healthy ingredients to get your nutrition punch, the chia pudding is a healthy way to keep you going until lunch.

But what’s best is when you layer these ingredients together. You get the texture contrast between the berries, pudding (gelatinous from the chia), and the creamy yogurt. I strongly recommend some pomegranate berries that add a tangy crunch that contrasts perfectly with the other ingredients.

This layered chia pudding is my favorite breakfast. It is incredibly healthy and filling, but it tastes almost like dessert. It’s also so easy to add whatever nutrients you need to add to your diet!
