These cute little chia pudding parfaits are absolutely “parfait” for this 4th of July. Sometimes it’s hard to stay healthy on the 4th with all the BBQs and the oh-so-tempting patriotic desserts, but this recipe has got you totally covered and will keep you feeling light and healthy while strutting your bikini bod on the beach all weekend. 

You’ll LOVE this Coconut Vanilla Chia Pudding. It’s sweetened with stevia, packed with protein, and topped off with antioxidant-rich berries. My favorite ingredient is the fresh vanilla bean – it is just magical and gives the pudding a gourmet twist, and makes me feel a little fancy every time I use it in a recipe! The combo of the vanilla bean and coconut flavor is so scrumptious and sweet. If you love coconut, you’ll be in heaven with the parfaits – they taste like summertime! And nothing tastes better than summer right?

If you’re hosting a brunch on the 4th or if you want to serve some guilt-free desserts, this is the perfect recipe for you. I ate it for breakfast today and it was perfectly filling and satisfying. What’s extra fab about this recipe is that it literally takes 5 minutes to prepare, then you just put it in the fridge, go run some errands, workout, do something productive, and come back and your pudding is ready to go. Another option is to pop it in the fridge overnight and you don’t even have to think about it. Then you can assemble it into fruit parfaits whenever you feel like it.

Here’s what you’ll need . . . 

Happy 4th! xo
