Chia Pudding (just 3 ingredients!)

At this point, chia seeds are nothing new on this blog — you can check out my recipe for Lemon Chia Muffins or Baked Steel Cut Oats to see other ways to use this amazing little superfood. But this recipe is slightly different. With just three ingredients you can make a healthy, delicious chia pudding that is sure to keep you satisfied for hours.

Approximately five minutes of effort are required total for this chia pudding — the longest part is just waiting for the chia seeds to absorb water. Then you just need to mix them with yogurt and top with any fruit your heart desires. I’ve made this pudding with strawberries, blueberries, peaches — the possibilities are endless, and no added sugar is needed. Enjoy it for breakfast, dessert, a snack — whatever you’d like!
