How Can Elon Musk Save Tesla?

Image
Elon Musk shocked the world when he recently denounced President Trump and exposed him.  The big blowout between the special government employee and the President of the United States occurred last week.  During the blowout, Musk tweeted a series of rapid fire statements about Trump. The most jaw-dropping of them all was the tweet that said: “Without me, Trump would have lost the election.”  It’s clear that Elon believes that his resources and presence while on the campaign was the reason for his win.  Is Musk solely alluding to the money given to the Trump campaign or is he actually alluding to helping him win through other means?   This is a feud that no one saw coming. The two shared what appeared to be an extremely close relationship; one that could even be compared to a father and son bond.  Last month, it had been announced that Musk would be stepping down from his position as senior advisor to resume focus on his companies.  Right before th...

Pudding Base Directions 

1.) Pour contents of instant pudding into medium sized mixing bowl.

Chia Pudding Directions

1.) Measure three 4.5 tablespoons of chia seeds and add to medium sized mixing bowl

5.) Once whisking is completed, set in refrigerator for 5-6 hours or leave in overnight.

Serve immediately or store in an airtight container.




About Chia pudding

Chia pudding is such a versatile and enjoyable food.  Chia is a heart healthy superfood that can help to reduce cholesterol.  It is power packed with fiber to promote gut and intestinal health.  These super tiny seeds contain minerals such as phosphorus, calcium and even omega 3.  It's also a great nut alternative for those who are allergic.  Chia can regulate blood sugar, improve mood and aid in weight loss. This tiny superfood has more benefits than some of the most healthy fruits and vegetables.  It contains 64% more potassium than a banana, 5x more calcium than milk, 2x the antioxidants in blueberries, 3x more iron than spinach and 100% more omega 3s than in salmon.

Chia pudding can be eaten for breakfast with garnishments like fruit, granola or nuts or it can be made to incorporate within a dessert as was done in this recipe.  It can also be made as a vegan substitute for eggs in baked goods (1 tbsp chia seeds with 3 tablespoons of water for each egg called for).  The texture of chia pudding on its own is quite seedy with just a hint of crunch.  In order to have more of a parfait feel, the creamy base was necessary.  I would also suggest topping this coconut chia pudding with your favorite syrups (marshmallow, caramel, etc).  This dessert will hit the sweet spot.  As a certified foodie and occasional food reviewer, you know that I will not steer you wrong ; )

This recipe will serve 5-6 people.
