Well I thought I’d try my hand at chia pudding at last. I was hoping the kiddies would love it and take it in their lunchbox. Fail! They were far from impressed.
I don’t eat breakfast often so I was hoping this might be a good breakfast option for me. I think I still need to get my head around it. The taste is yummy with the addition of raspberries but I feel like I’m eating slug eggs or similar! I’ll get use to it though and will try blitzing my seeds first next time. It tastes yummy. That’s what counts.
This is a thick set pudding. I don’t like it liquidy.

How any people is this meant to serve? I’ve tried it using just a quarter of the quantities to try a single serve. Waiting until the morning to see how it tastes (and I blitzed the seeds first so hopefully no slugs!)
I’my keen to try this though I think the texture of slug eggs is just how chia goes once it’s mixed with liquid. I tried one of the chia pods you can get from the supermarket (endorsed by Kelly Slater <3 ) and it took a bit to get used to the texture.
