Delicious Protein-Packed Breakfast Ideas

5. Overnight Chia Pudding

Does the thought of cooking in the mornings leave you cold? Wake up with this vegan, non-dairy alternative to overnight oats. Chia seeds contain an impressive 19% plant protein by weight, which is more than most cereals. They’re also full of fiber and healthy fats.

To make overnight chia pudding, combine one cup of coconut milk with a quarter cup of chia seeds in a jar, and add some chopped ripe mango, macadamia nuts, and unsweetened coconut flakes. Stir, close the lid, and let the mixture soak together in the fridge overnight. The chia seeds soak up the liquid and expand; in the morning, you’ll have a ready-made, high-protein breakfast waiting for you!
