Chia puddings have been quite popular recently, and I can think of so many reasons why:
- Chia seeds are so so nutrient dense. They’re high in healthy fats and fiber at the same time, with more than 85% of those few carbs it has being fiber.
- Super easy to make: Just whisk it with milk and whatever else you want in there, and stash it away.
- Meal prep! They can be made a few days in advance, so bulk cooking is definitely an option.
Unfortunately though, they’re also quite a hit-or-miss in terms of individual preferences because of the texture. They’re thick and creamy, but some would say that those little seeds swell up to make sort of… “blobby”.
I for one love them, and would totally recommend this one. Especially coz it’s also sweet because of the protein powder.
