21 Day Fix Approved Chocolate Chia Seed Pudding
Updated: Jan 2
Chia seed pudding is a easy and delicious way to easily get the benefits of chia seeds. It takes minutes to make and has enough protein and nutrients to be a quick, on-the-go breakfast option! This recipe for 21 Day Fix approved chocolate chia seed pudding (say that five times fast!) is from Fixate, the 21 Day Fix cookbook.

I love chia seeds and use them a lot in baking and my morning oatmeal! Chia seeds are mini powerhouses packing more calcium than milk, more antioxidants than blueberries and more Omega-3 than Salmon.
Their texture can take a little getting used to, but they are so versatile and are a great protein-packed addition to many recipes because of their ability to thicken and gel.

You could use any kind of resealable container to store whatever is not eaten right away. I love these little Weck jars that I purchased on Amazon. When serving, top with your favorite fruit or nuts. The possibilities are endless!
