Chocolate Chia Mousse
You won’t believe this chocolate mousse is vegan and packed with fibres, proteins and nutrients! I present the chocolate chia mousse, a delicious snack for those moments you are craving chocolate or when you want chocolate for breakfast (who doesn’t?).
Bonus, chia seeds is a complete protein (contains all 9 essential ammonia acids) and one serving of this mousse will give you 9g of protein, 10g fibre and 9g fats (of which 3.7g omega-3 and 2.7g omega-6).
