Chocolate Protein Chia Pudding

Okay, this chia pudding absolutely changed the game for me. I think I may have a new obsession. I was really craving something sweet this morning before my HEAVY leg day, but I wanted to switch it up from my usual pancakes. And so - this Chocolate Protein Chia pudding was born!

Unfortunately, the protein element isn't derived from natural food sources, but this bowl tasted sooooo good that I ain't even complaining. The chocolate protein mixed with cocoa powder just makes this bowl taste SO incredibly rich and delicious. You won't even believe this is 34 grams of protein per bowl. I'll be honest, this is probably the best pudding I've ever had - let alone protein pudding.
