Chia seeds have gained immense popularity due to their impressive nutritional profile. These tiny seeds are rich in dietary fiber, protein, and omega-3 fatty acids, making them a fantastic addition to any diet. A single ounce of chia seeds provides approximately 11 grams of fiber, 4 grams of protein, and a substantial amount of alpha-linolenic acid (ALA), which is a type of omega-3 fatty acid. The high fiber content promotes digestive health and contributes to a feeling of fullness, making chia seeds an excellent choice for those looking to manage their weight.

Ingredients
  

1/2 cup chia seeds

2 cups almond milk (or any milk of your choice)

1 tablespoon maple syrup (or honey, if not vegan)

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1/2 cup mixed berries (strawberries, blueberries, raspberries)

Fresh mint leaves (for garnish)

Optional toppings: sliced almonds, coconut flakes, and more fresh berries

Instructions
 

Prepare the Base: In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine the chia seeds, almond milk, maple syrup, and vanilla extract. Whisk the mixture thoroughly to ensure there are no clumps.

    Let it Set: Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or a lid and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight. The chia seeds will expand and absorb the liquid, creating a thick pudding-like consistency.

      Stir and Serve: After the pudding has set, give it a good stir to break up any clumps that might have formed. If it's too thick, you can add a splash more of milk to reach your desired consistency.

        Layer with Berries: In serving glasses or bowls, layer the chia pudding with the mixed berries. You can alternate layers of pudding and berries to create a beautiful presentation.

          Garnish: Top with fresh mint leaves and any additional toppings you desire, such as sliced almonds or coconut flakes.

            Enjoy!: Serve immediately or keep them in the refrigerator for a quick, healthy breakfast or snack throughout the week!
