Chia Seed Pudding

Saturday, July 5, 2014

Okay, before you get all judge-y on your side of the screen PLEASE believe me when I say you NEED to try this chia seed pudding.  I know. I KNOW! I know it looks a little.... *questionable* but trust me, this shit IS good!  Now, if your still with me I have the recipe right here for you to follow.  If your feeling a little brave I promise you won't be sorry.  So let's get started.

:::: Prep ::::

Let's go ahead and gather our ingredients.  Your gonna need:

Chia seeds (mine came from Trader Joe's but you should be able to find them in any store)
Almond milk in vanilla (I used normal whole milk because my body shuts down if nuts enter my precious system... so yeah)
Vanilla Extract (because I'm using normal milk)
Honey
Biscoff Cookie Spread 
Fruit (Berries or Bananas)



:::: Step 1 ::::

First your gonna add 2/3 cup of milk and your 1/4 cup of chia seeds into a bowl.  Make sure to stir well so nothing settles at the bottom. 





:::: Step 2 ::::

Chia seeds themselves don't have much flavor so this is where everything gets really yummy.  This is where your going to add your honey, vanilla extract, and cookie spread.  I'd say I probably added a tablespoon of honey and cookie spread, and probably, 2 teaspoons of vanilla extract, but I didn't really measure it out. I think it's best to add according to your own sweet tooth ;)  

Side Note: I also decided last minute to add a sprinkle of cinnamon in between the vanilla extract and cookie spread... choice well made!





:::: Step 3 ::::

Make sure to stir thoroughly, the cookie spread takes a little work, to mix out any little chucks.  When your done all the extra ingredients should be mixed so well you can barely tell they were added.  Should look similar to when you initially mixed the milk and seeds in the first step.  Then your gonna put your bowl in the fridge.  I let it sit over night.

Side Note: At this point if you have bananas or berries, I would suggest adding them now if you want them to sit over night. 


:::: Step 4 ::::

In the morning add any fruit you didn't the night before, top off with more cinnamon, and enjoy your snack!



 

:::: Step 5 ::::

ENJOY!
