I love chia pudding – it’s a wonderfully satisfying and filling dessert that is also healthy and super versatile to accommodate for taste, season and occasion. You can just spoon it out of a bowl or layer it in a glass to create a fancy dinner party version. Chia pudding lasts for about 4-5 days refrigerated, so it’s a great snack to prepare for the week.

Preparation tips
Make sure to soak long enough so the seeds are soft and you get the right pudding texture. You can also soak overnight. If you find it too thick, just add a little liquid. Too runny – add more chia seeds.
