Ingredients:
* 1/2 cup raw chia seeds (can be replaced with 1/4 cup chia seeds + 1/4 cup hemp hearts)
* 2 cups unsweetened almond milk (or any other non-dairy milk)
* 1 ripe medium-sized mango, diced
* 1 small lime, juiced (about 1/4 cup)
* 1 tablespoon agave nectar or maple syrup
* 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
* Pinch of sea salt
* Optional toppings: chopped nuts, fresh fruit, granola, etc.
Directions:
1. In a large bowl, whisk together the chia seeds and 2 cups of the almond milk until well combined. Set aside.
2. Add the diced mango, lime juice, agave need, vanilla extract, and pinch of sea salt to a blender. Blend on high speed until smooth, about 1 minute.
3. Pour the mango mixture into a large mixing bowl. Stir in the remaining 1/2 cup of almond milk.
4. Slowly pour the chia seed mixture into the blended mango mixture, stirring gently as you go. This will prevent clumping.
5. Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours or up to overnight. The longer it sits, the thicker it will become.
Note: If using the optional toppings, layer them in parfait glasses before serving.
