Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup plain Greek yogurt (or plant-based alternative)
- 2 tablespoons chia seeds
- ½ cup milk (dairy or non-dairy)
- 1 teaspoon honey or maple syrup (optional)
- ½ teaspoon vanilla extract (optional)
- Fresh fruit (blueberries, strawberries, banana, or mango)
- Nuts or seeds (almonds, walnuts, or flaxseeds)
Instructions
- In a mixing bowl or jar, combine yogurt, chia seeds, milk, honey, and vanilla extract.
- Stir well to evenly distribute the chia seeds.
- Let the mixture sit for 5 minutes, then stir again to prevent clumping.
- Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or for the best texture, leave it overnight.
- Before serving, give it a good stir. Top with fresh fruit, nuts, and extra honey if desired.
- Enjoy chilled for a refreshing and nutrient-dense meal.
Notes
- For a thicker consistency, reduce the amount of milk.
- For a more pudding-like texture, let the chia yogurt soak overnight.
- Sweeteners are optional—ripe fruit adds natural sweetness.
- Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 5 days.
