Can you think of a sweeter way to get your excellent source of omega-3 fatty acids, rich in antioxidants, fiber, iron, and calcium.
Neither can I.
I usually enjoy chia seeds in yogurt, until my daughter prepared this delicious pudding for me. Yummy, creamy, thick chia pudding that's so nutritious and easy to make! Just 4 ingredients required for this tasty breakfast, snack, or dessert!

1 tsp vanilla extract
OPTIONAL MIX-INS
Compote, Nutella, Honey, Mint, Fresh Fruit, Nut butter, Cinnamon, Chocolate syrup or chips, Granola, Coconut shavings, Sliced Almonds

~To a mixing bowl add milk, chia seeds, maple syrup (to taste), and vanilla. Whisk to combine.
