White Chocolate + Curry = YUM!
I know you are probably thinking… did she just say White Chocolate and Curry? I did! It may sound like a strange combo but I promise you are going to love it.
I have been crazy busy with so many things lately which I am so thankful for but at the same time I have missed being in the kitchen coming up with new recipes. I finally had the chance to do some recipe exploration and came up with this yummy White Chocolate Curry Chia Pudding with Vital Proteins Collagen Peptides. Chia pudding has been one of my favorites for a long time. I love how fast and easy it is to whip up as well as the health benefits and versatility. You can take your chia pudding up a notch by mixing in some nutrient dense additional ingredients. In this case cacao butter, curry powder and Vital Proteins Collagen Peptides. Topped off with a little coconut whipped cream, a sprinkle of Ceylon cinnamon and fresh blueberries and you have a winning combination!
I love all the ingredients in this recipe but one of my favorites is Vital Proteins Collagen Peptides. Collagen has so many amazing healthy benefits, so I sneak it into as many things as I can. I love adding it to my water or coffee each day as well as into salad dressings, bone broth and smoothies and after trying it in this recipe I will be adding it to chia pudding from here on out. Collagen has so many health benefits! It’s wonderful for the gut, your joints, hair, skin and nails just to name a few. It has been part of my day for a long time and will continue to be!

- Optional Coconut Whipped Cream: scoop cream out of a can of coconut milk ensuring water remains in the can. You may need to refrigerate the can to harden the cream. Whip the cream with a hand mixer. You can add a little sweetener of choice and vanilla if you like but I personally like just the cream.
