Chia Seed Pudding

Chia seeds are a great source of fiber and antioxidants. One of my favorite ways to enjoy chia seeds is what I call "Chia Seed Pudding".

In a bowl combine

Coconut milk (the kind in a carton, not what you get in a can to cook with)
Chia seeds
Maple syrup
Cardamon
Cinnamon
Nuts
Fruit

Stir well.

This is all to taste. Chia seeds take about 30 min to swell, If after the seeds have swollen my pudding is too thick or too thin, I will add either more coconut milk or more chia seeds.

Cardamon has a strong flavor so a little goes a long way!

I enjoy slivered almonds and either blueberries or apples in mine, but add whatever you like!

Chia seeds and coconut milk (or almond milk, hemp milk, etc) is your base. Play around with different flavors and let me know what you enjoy :)

This is a great healthy treat that really feels like you are indulging but is super low in calories and high in fiber and nutrition.
