How to make a healthy and easy chia seed pudding

This mixed berry chia seed pudding is so simple to make, but it does take some planning (12 hours in advance). 

Here's how to do it!

  • The night before, puree together your favorite mixed berries and coconut milk in a large bowl
  • Stir in the chia seeds, vanilla, cinnamon, and salt
  • Tightly cover and place in the refrigerator overnight
  • Boom!  When you wake up, breakfast will be ready!

What are chia seeds?

Chia seeds are tiny seeds from the salvia hispanica plant (a member of the mint family), dating back to the Pre-Columbian era and were a main food in the Mayan diet. 

They are filled with all sorts of vital nutrients, like fiber, protein, antioxidants, calcium, and plant-based omega-3 essential fatty acids.

When combined with a liquid, chia seeds develop a gelatinous texture which makes them easier to digest.

Their thick consistency makes them perfect for all kinds of puddings!

This pudding is slightly adapted from the Blueberry Chia Seed Breakfast Pudding recipe from the  10-Day Detox Diet book of my favorite clean eating Guru, Dr. Mark Hyman.

Dr. Hyman's version of a chia seed pudding is a little more dense in texture, as opposed to a creamier one. 

Whenever I want a creamier pudding, I just add an additional ¼ cup of coconut milk to the recipe.

    Karrie, I don't think it's a good idea to start your ckean/healthy eating now. Look, first of all, it's still summer so ice cream and pasta salads must be involved. Secondly, do you think it's a reasonable thing with Thanksgiving and then Christmas around the corner? So my suggestion is to wait until January:) Well, if you're a strong person, I respect this and won't discourage you. Besides, any healthy eating is better with a chia pudding involved.

    With all the calcium packed into ice cream, how is it not yet considered a health food? It should be at least on the level of carrots and kale. (I'm trying to justify my summer of eating badly.). But this pudding is gorgeous! I love chia pudding; I need to try your version ASAP!

    This is a pretty and tasty little bowl of healthiness! It just so happens that I had plain overnight oats and chia for lunch today for my day of clean eating. It was good, but didn't have the eye appeal, texture, or flavor of this pudding. I need to have a do-over with your version! My day of eating light unfortunately ended badly when we remember that there was a food truck festival in town. I had fried chicken bites, ate some of my husband's loaded hot dogs, and a big bowl of ice cream for dinner! ?

    Oh my, Karrie, this looks so good! There are times when healthy eating is also pretty darn delicious: And chia puddings with fruits are an example. Love it!

    What a yummy puddin'! Love that it's healthy too, so I can eat an extra serving. I didn't know chia seeds were a member of the mint family - would never have guess it!! I love the idea of adding more coconut milk to make this one creamier....though, it looks pretty awesome as is. Can't wait to give this one a try; it's definitely something hubby and I would enjoy for b fast throughout the week (or those mid morning snacks that I love). XOXO
