Pomegranate Chia Parfait
If you want a simple energy-giving, high protein, high fiber breakfast or snack with only a little bit of planning, this is the one. If you’re like me, it gives all the textures. I lived off of tapioca pudding as a kid and this is the next best thing without the harmful sugars and additives!
