Benefits Of Chia Seeds

  • They deliver a massive amount of nutrients with fewer calories.

Tips For The Perfect Strawberry Chia Pudding

Measure Out Your Milk First

The ratio of milk mixture to chia seeds is important in reaching the best consistency. Make sure to measure out your milk – I like coconut and oat milk – and then blend it with your strawberries.

Add Your Choice Of Sweetener To Milk/Strawberry Mixture

I like mixing honey into the milk and strawberries before adding anything else. This makes sure the base of the pudding is evenly sweetened. 

The Perfect Ratio

A lot of people complain of chia pudding that’s too runny or too thick. I find the perfect ratio is ⅓ cup of chia seeds to 1 cup of liquid. But for something a tad lighter, feel free to use ¼ cups of chia seeds per 1 cup of liquid. It’s up to you, but I like a creamy consistency.

Set For At Least 3 Hours

Or make it the night before to enjoy in the morning! It takes some time for the chia seeds to absorb the liquid and reach the gel-like texture we all love! Allow it to sit and do its thing, although I know it will be hard to wait!
