Chia seeds are full of healthy fats, known as omega-3 fatty acids. These help reduce inflammation in your body. The pudding absorbs waters and helps keep you hydrated and feeling satisfied throughout the day. Chia seeds are also full of protein which helps stabilize your blood sugar and give you energy throughout the day. These also help move your digestion along, if things are moving slow.
This makes a great "breakfast" option

The finished recipe image looks nothing like the end results. They must have used a cream or milk in that image. It did set up well and I used copious amounts of cinnamon since its better for lowering blood sugars. But next time I’ll follow the guidance of the community and use an unsweetened oat or almond milk.
Is there a way to get answers to recipe comments/questions?
Love this!! I make 1/2 batch at a time and love it with strawberries, blueberries and raspberries!!
I bought the level 1 cookbook, and the ingredient proportions are different. For a smaller batch (1 to 2 servings), use 2 tablespoons chia and 1/2 cup liquid.
@Sabrina…I have had it the pudding last 10 days so far.
