Instructions
- 1
In a small saucepan, combine the chopped prunes and water, then bring to a gentle simmer over low heat for 3–4 minutes until the prunes are very soft and the mixture is slightly thickened.
- 2
Stir in the chia seeds and ground flaxseed, remove from heat, and let sit for 3–5 minutes to thicken and cool slightly; the mixture should become jam-like but still spoonable.
- 3
In a bowl, gently whisk the Greek yogurt until smooth, then divide it evenly between two small serving bowls.
- 4
Spoon the warm prune–chia mixture over the yogurt in each bowl, then top with pumpkin seeds and drizzle with honey if using; serve slightly warm or at room temperature, adding a splash of extra water if it feels too thick.
GLP-1 Tips
- Sip a glass of water (150–250 ml) alongside this snack to help the fiber from prunes, chia, and flax move through the gut, which is especially important when GLP-1 medications slow motility.
- If your stomach is very sensitive, let the prune–chia mixture cool to just lukewarm and start with half a portion to see how your gut tolerates the added fiber.
Storage
Store the prune–chia mixture separately in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days; add it to fresh yogurt just before eating and stir in a little water if it thickens too much.
