Recipe: Vegan Pumpkin Coconut Chia Pudding

Its pumpkin season! Whats better than a quick and easy dish thats both a nutritious and yummy treat? This pudding is loaded with Vitamin A, fiber and has a low glycemic load (less likely to spike blood sugar). Its great for breakfast, dessert or snack.

Gluten-free, dairy-free, egg-free!

Ingredients:

- 1.5 cups organic pumpkin puree

- 1.5c organic coconut milk (culinary)

- 1/2 cup chia seeds

- 2 tbsp maple syrup

- lots of cinnamon

- dash of cloves, nutmeg, ginger

(you can also find "pumpkin pie spice" in most grocery stores which contains all of these spices!)

Directions:

1. Mix all ingredients together

2. Let sit for 3 hours (this allows the consistency to become pudding-like as the chia seeds do their magic)

3. Serve & Enjoy!

4. Optional topping: crushed pecans or walnuts, coconut flakes and um... more cinnamon (I love cinnamon)
