How to Make Chocolate Peanut Butter Chia Seed Pudding
This pudding is decadent enough to be a fancy dessert for two, or light enough for breakfast or a midday snack. Chia seeds are a diabetes superfood. They are high in fiber and omega-3 fatty acids—great for blood glucose (blood sugar) management and heart health. When combined with liquid, they form a gel creating a pudding-like texture. To make this vegan, use a non-dairy milk like almond or soy.

Choco chia pudding
I used Great Value (walmart) Stevia packets. I used 3 in this recipe, but will cut back to 2 next time. I also used almond milk.
It is delicious. Just a bit sweet for me. The texture is smooth, creamy, with crispy little seeds. An excellent dessert! I will be trying strawberry using Crystal Light type drink mix.
