Meal Prep Made Simple

Prep Sunday, sorted all week. Make 3-5 portions at once. Keep in the fridge for up to 5 days. Grab one each morning—breakfast done. Saves you 30 minutes per week and costs less than your coffee shop. Practical, delicious, the Savvy way.

Why this works

No cooking needed. The chia seeds create a pudding-like texture, and the berries add natural sweetness and color. Perfect for meal prep.

Practical tip: Frozen berries work perfectly and are often cheaper. The chia seeds will thicken the mixture - that's normal. Add fresh berries on top for visual appeal.
