OVERNIGHT CHIA SEEDS & RICE PUDDING (VEGAN /GLUTEN FREE)

1.5 cups unsweetened cashew milk

INSTRUCTIONS:

Add the remaining ingredients, and transfer to a large container with a lid. Allow to cool at room temperature (stirring 2-3 times) to break up the chia seeds and prevent clumping. Once cool, cover and refrigerate overnight. To serve, stir the chilled pudding and top with fresh berries, diced mangos and toasted coconut.
