How long should you soak chia seed pudding?

Soak chia pudding for at least 3 hours or overnight in the fridge for best texture and optimal gel formation. I personally prefer the overnight method because it gives the chia seeds plenty of time to fully expand and create that perfect pudding consistency.

How to get chia pudding creamy?

Use full-fat coconut milk , blend the mixture after soaking, and make sure you have the proper liquid-to-chia ratio (about 8:1) for maximum creaminess. The fat content in coconut milk is what creates that rich, indulgent texture we're after.

Can I eat chia pudding every day?

Yes, chia pudding can be eaten daily as it's rich in fiber, omega-3s, and protein, but start with smaller portions if you're new to chia seeds. Your digestive system needs time to adjust to the high fiber content.

Is 2 tablespoons of chia seeds a day too much?

No, 2 tablespoons (about 1 ounce) is within the recommended daily amount and provides excellent nutritional benefits without adverse effects for most people. This amount gives you about 10 grams of fiber and 4 grams of protein !
