There was a time when I didn’t like Chia Seed Pudding… that was until I learned how to sweeten and flavor it. Now, it’s my new fave. It’s low-carb and perfect for the Vegan, Keto, Whole30, Weight Watchers, and Paleo followers — and frankly, for anyone who just wants a healthy option for breakfast or a snack. It’s also gluten-free, dairy-free, and free to enjoy.
Chia seeds are:
- A good source of protein
- Almost all its carbs are fiber – 40%
- High in Omega-3 Fatty Acids
- Helps to reduce blood sugar levels
- Loaded with antioxidants
Chia seed pudding is simple to make… just takes time to chill up in the fridge. 30-minutes to an hour. I like to serve them in these 4 oz glass jars. They’re great for single serve portions and also perfect for buffets and parties… they can be used for so many things like serving jams and jellies, condiments such as relishes, mustard and ketchup, tapenades, salad dressings, and more.
