This chia pudding is delicious on its own—and even better when layered with maple yogurt as a parfait. Leftover maple yogurt can be repurposed for breakfast and topped with fruit and granola. It’s a choose-your-own-adventure kind of dessert. This recipe is part of the 2019 Feel Good Food Plan, our ten-day plan for starting the year off right.
