Pumpkin Chia Pudding

Yum, this one is so good it's hard not to eat the whole bowl!  Try it topped with a little coconut yogurt or add a crunch with some granola. This keeps well in the fridge for up to five days.

Tip:  I like to add a tablespoon of ground flaxseed to my serving to increase my intake of omega-3 fatty acids.
