Blueberries have one of the highest antioxidant capacities among all fruits and vegetables. These amazing berries also improve heart health, reduce cancer risk, fight UTIs, and boost brain health.
Just combine these powerful little berries with some healthy fats and omega 3's, and you have yourself a nutritious and delicious way to start off your day!
(this pudding also makes for a fantastic baby food; my 13 month-old loves it.
Just omit or lesson the sweetener, if you can get away with it.) ;)
