Collection of Cravings

Breakfast this morning was a collection of cravings I had all week. Oranges-spices and pumpkin! Something that said California sunshine during fall time..perhaps my two favorite things. Nothing like thick red knitted scarfs, cold cheeks, warm sunshine rays and this breakfast to brighten the day. To conclude my taste testing of all the goodies Navitas Naturals sent me I saved the best for last...the Citrus Chia Snacks!


Warm Pumpkin Pie Pudding with Crumbled Citrus Chia Snacks -the perfect addition to any breakfast. Burst of citrus flavor with the crunch of chia and sweet date goodness. Not too sweet, not too tart. I'm never making raw bars again! These snacks can be crumbled on top of oatmeal or ate on their own for the best energy possible -maca powder and chia seed for energy paired with natural sugar, dates and apricots, for long term endurance!


-crumble on oatmeal
-toss in a smoothie for flavor
-mixed in pancake batter
-raw crust for desserts
-energy snack


They were the perfect sweetness to compliment the other spicy flavors of the pudding -and I loved the crunch of the chia! I would add these to any of my breakfast meals for instant energy or before pilates snack! I'm already thinking of ways to make my own- dates, orange zest and chia are the main attractions. I'm pretty sure that these could be easily made if you had all the lovely super food ingredients to create a similar raw snack. Overall I loved everything - especially how raw food can be integrated into any style of food. Thanks again Navitas Naturals!
