Chia Seed Pudding

This pudding is very rich and delicious. I have suggested that this is a one serving recipe, but it in fact may be more than enough for two!

1/2 cup almond milk, coconut milk or any other favorite nut milk
2 T chia seeds
dash vanilla
2 T cacao (if desired)

Chocolate chia seed pudding served in a fancy glass and topped with strawberries and plain yogurt.
Combine all the ingredients in a glass or a wide-mouth glass jar and it give it a thorough stirring - a whisk works well. Allow the pudding to sit and stir again after 5 minutes.
Cover and chill in the refrigerator for an hour or two.  Overnight is best.
This pudding can be eaten as is or topped with strawberries or some other in-season fruit and a dollop of full-fat plain yogurt.
If you prefer a thicker consistency, add a tablespoon of freshly ground flax seeds and allow it to set for a half-hour or so.

Recipes for homemade: 
coconut milk
almond milk


A note about chia seeds: DO NOT eat them raw. Chia seeds should only be eaten after soaking them, i.e., don't eat them out of the bag or sprinkled on top of a salad. Chia seeds absorb approximately 8 to 27 times their weight in water, so let them act as a thickener for a pudding rather than having them expand in your stomach. They are also great in soups and a variety of foods, just make sure they have time to expand before eating them!
