Vanilla Coconut Chia Seed Pudding


I had seen things about chia seeds for some time now, but it's only been recently that i've actually gotten some to be able to try some recipes. It's still a little odd to eat them because of typically thinking that they are just used for those chia pets instead of eating.

The recipe for this was actually on the back of the package of the chia seeds. So this is what i did for this one.

1/4 cup chia seeds
1 cup vanilla coconut milk
1/8 cup honey

Mix together and then let it sit in the fridge for 2-3 or more hours to let it thicken.

I found it a little hard to mix the honey in because it was thick and doesn't just mix easily in with cold liquids, so maybe heat up the honey a little to make it a little thinner. Could even just not include the honey, i'm sure it's just for added sweetness.

It doesn't really get pudding thickness, but it's pretty good. It reminds me of tapioca texture, just slightly crunchy still if you chew the seeds.


It's easy, it's tasty, it's got good things for you from the chia seeds. I'm pretty interested in trying other versions of it. Already just wanting to try lots of different recipes using chia seeds.
