One of my go-to desserts these days: vanilla chia seed pudding! It’s simple, delicious, vegan, healthy and kid-friendly 😃
To make this recipe with zero waste (or low waste):
• Buy chia seeds package-free from a bulk store (or compostable packaging)
• Buy milk in consigned glass container (or recyclable carton). For bonus points, you can even make your own plant-based milk 👍
• Buy maple syrup package-free from a bulk store (or in glass/metal container)
