Gingerbread Chia Pudding
This Weight-Loss Breakfast Tastes Like a Gingerbread Man
If you're obsessed with overnight oats, but getting a little tired of them, then you must try overnight chia pudding. It offers up more fiber, which means it just might fill you up even longer than your usual jar of oats. It also has a pudding-like consistency, so it might feel more decadent to dip your spoon into this bowl.
This basic recipe is flavored with maple syrup and warming gingerbread spices; plus, the toppings add extra sweetness and crunch. And because it follows the nutritionist-appproved formula for losing weight, this breakfast will not only satisfy your cravings for sweetly-spiced desserts, but you'll also be happy when you step on the scale.
