They say breakfast is the most important meal of the day. And chocolate is the most important food. So any opportunity to combine healthful raw chocolate with breakfast is an opportunity for success!

This raw chocolate chia porridge almost seems like cheating. You get a sweet, delicious breakfast with honest-to-goodness chocolate in it to satisfy the kid in you, but the adult in you doesn’t have to feel guilty about what you just ate. With the bounty of chia seeds for omega fatty goodness, plus the stimulating effects of cacao, this is a great way to start your day.

Plus it tastes amazing. You might not want to have anything other than chocolate chia porridge for breakfast ever again!
