This is a fun way to infuse your chia pudding with the flavors of the holidays. Chia pudding makes a great breakfast, afternoon snack, or tasty dessert based on the flavors and liquid you add to them.
I’m always amazed at the nutrient density of these tiny seeds. Chia is the highest plant-based source of omega 3, protein and fiber. Chia seeds are also packed with vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants. Adding chia to your diet is great for those that follow a gluten-free diet while supporting weight-loss, bone, digestive and cardiovascular health along with so many other benefits.

Keeps well in the fridge in an airtight container for 3-5 days.
For more of a dessert, I like to add a spoonful of coconut whip cream and additional cinnamon for fun.
