Why I Love This Recipe

This recipe started as a way to pack more nuts and seeds into my day—and quickly became a staple. It’s plant-based, customizable, and incredibly satisfying. Better yet, it’s designed for busy mornings. You can prep individual servings ahead of time, and all you need to do is add liquid and let it soak.

You get:

• More than half of your daily fibre intake in one serving.
• A serious protein boost thanks to hemp, chia, soy milk, and nuts.
• A satisfying mix of healthy fats that keep you full.
• The perfect base for antioxidant-rich toppings like blueberries and spices.

The Basic Formula

• 3 tbsp chia seeds
• 3 tbsp hemp seeds
• ¼ cup mixed nuts (almonds, walnuts, pecans—whatever you like)
• 2–3 chopped dates or another dried fruit
• ½ cup fresh or frozen berries
• 1 cup unsweetened soy milk (or swap in oat, almond, or even hot water)
• A dash of warming spices like cinnamon, cardamom, nutmeg, and ginger

Instructions:
Mix all the dry ingredients in a jar or container. Add your soy milk, stir well, and let it soak for 30 minutes— or overnight in the fridge. Add more liquid as needed. Top with a dollop of yogurt or a few extra berries if you like.

Portable Nutrition That Works Anywhere

This is a breakfast I’ve taken absolutely everywhere—from camping trips to conference centers. You can pre-pack the dry mix in containers or jars and just add your liquid of choice when you’re ready to eat. Soy milk, almond milk, or even hot water with a spoonful of yogurt on top works beautifully in a pinch.
