‘Tis the season of giving and goodies, but this is one we love because it actually makes us feel good instead of yuck.
The creamy coconut milk and soothing gelatin in place of cornstarch… along with the low sugar content of this pudding lends to it’s feel-good qualities.
The gelatin also gives it a little punch of protein and lowers the carb content.
It’s not much harder to whip up than a packet of instant pudding… but with a much more wholesome ingredient list.
