Morning Sunshine Chia Bowl

Ask anyone I work with and they will tell you I basically eat the same breakfast at work every day. It’s my chia seed breakfast pudding in a Tupperware. This sunshine bowl ups the ante a bit with added fruit, but it’s still a super easy breakfast to make and it contains 12g of protein…
