These pudding jars are not just about turmeric. I added some cinnamon because you know, it’s fall and the weathers slowly changing and one minute you are lounging around in your shorts, and the next you are looking for that hoodie from last year that’s lying at the far end of your wardrobe. I love how the winter just sneaks up on you and makes you feel like pushing your toes into the carpet, and grabbing that hot chocolate.

This breakfast pudding is cold though which is not ideal for winter, but we aren’t there yet. And we can enjoy cold breakfast chia seed pudding jars for just a little while longer. Just a little bit longer till we switch to warm oatmeal and fried eggs.But if you are absolutely in a cold weather situation and can’t think of cold turmeric chia seed pudding cups, you can still get the healthy of turmeric in this easy to make turmeric milk, which is also perfect, minus the chia seeds though. But perfect enough to warm you up. See I have all the right options, doesn’t matter where you are in this world!
