About the recipe
This mango and passionfruit chia mousse is bursting with tropical flavour, naturally sweet, and packed with fibre, healthy fats, and plant-based protein. By blending the chia seeds, the texture becomes silky smooth—making it perfect for babies, toddlers, and even picky eaters who aren’t fans of whole chia seeds. Plus, it’s much less messy than traditional chia puddings, so it’s a win for parents too!
Whether served as a nourishing breakfast, a snack on the go, or a refreshing summer dessert, this simple, no-cook recipe is one the whole family can enjoy. Bonus: it’s allergy-friendly, dairy-free and freezer-friendly too!
