Have you ever had chia seeds? I must admit, I was a bit wary of them when I first saw them. They reminded me of the little “fish eye” Asian drink that comes in a can. They weren’t really fish eyes.. they just looked like them. I actually don’t even know what was in it. Does anyone know what I’m talking about?
Anyways, I had one of those Mama Chia squeeze pouches and it wasn’t terrible. You just have to brace yourself for those little seeds coming your way. Once you get over that, then it’s kind of good.
I saw a bag of chia seeds at Trader Joe’s so I threw them in my shopping cart to experiment with later. I found out that people at my work eat it all the time! They throw it into their water bottles, let it sit for a while, and then drink away! Apparently chia seeds can absorb up to 12 times their weight in liquid when soaked. Thanks, Wikipedia.
They’re also great for you because one serving of chia seeds has 11 grams of dietary fiber, 4 grams of protein, and 18% of your recommended daily intake of calcium. That’s one powerful punch for such a little seed!
To make chia pudding, I simply soaked the seeds in my choice of milk overnight. After that, they become thick and slimy, perfect for eating with a spoon.
I think that using vanilla soy milk was key for this recipe because of the added depth of flavor. Regular milk probably wouldn’t be as good. Although, you could try it and let me know otherwise.
Ingredients
- 1 cup vanilla soy milk (I used Silk)
- 1/4 cup chia seeds
- 2 1/2 tablespoons honey
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
Directions
- Mix all of the ingredients together and then let sit in the refrigerator for a couple of hours.
