Chia Seed Pudding


I probably would have never tried chia seeds, but they were on sale at Costco and I was buying things to make homemade granola bars and I thought they would be a healthy addition to them (and they were.) I also thought there might be other ways to use them and I heard about this "pudding." The kids didn't like it, but I really like it as a light breakfast.

I made several changes that I'm noting here for me to remember later. I used plain unsweetened almond milk, regular whole milk non-Greek yogurt and I didn't add any more maple syrup other than the initial amount called for. (I didn't add any the next day.) I mixed in frozen blueberries the next morning and had my whole almonds on the side. One recipe was enough for me to eat on for three breakfasts. 

This is definitely a keeper!
