You asked, you shall receive. I dug through the FCITC archives (aka I typed “chia pudding” in the search box on the fcitc homepage) and found the recipe for chocolate strawberry super pudding. This guilt free dessert is bursting with nutrients (think omega 3 fatty acids, fiber & Vitamin C) and can satisfy my sweet tooth.
Chocolate Strawberry Super Pudding
- 2 T organic chia seeds
- 1/2 c. unsweetened almond milk
- 1T agave (or sweeten to taste)
- 2 T raw cacao
- dash of salt
- 1/2 cup sliced strawberries
Directions: Combine chia seeds and almond milk. Stir in all other ingredients minus the strawberries. Chop strawberries. Cover the chia seed mixture and place in the refrigerator for a minimum of 20 minutes. Remove from refrigerator. Layer a small bowl with 1/2 of the sliced strawberries. Spoon the chia mixture on top of strawberries, then add the remaining strawberries on top of the pudding.

So I’ve been very reluctant to get on this whole chia seed wagon, but for this, I could get behind it.

Some people can’t handle the texture. It’s a little weird to say the least, but for some reason it doesn’t bother me.
