Pudding for Breakfast

Welcome to my very first recipe post! Chia seed pudding is my very favorite breakfast (or dessert) right now. Chia seeds are fairly new to me but they have been so fun to experiment with and they have excellent health benefits. Not to mention the texture is so so so interesting. I get mine from either Trader Joes or your health food store. The seeds are super small and have a really nice flavor on their own but when you add them to liquid, they absorb it and create a gelatin-like substance. There is a slight difference (I've noticed) in white or back chia.. the darker seem to stay a bit more crunchy and the white are more gelatinous after soaking for a short period of time. It's your choice which seeds to use.. I use white here because I bought a MASSIVE bag. They are tasty in just about anything, yogurt, smoothies, in baked treats. I've tried a few different flavors of this pudding but the berries and cream is just the greatest flavor mixture. So this is the way I make Chia Seed pudding... Keep in mind everything can be replaced or added (milks, nuts, fruits, sugars) But this is how I like it! (here are a few breakfasts that include chia seed pudding. YUM

Cream 'n Berries Chia Seed Pudding (two servings)

1/2 cup lite or full-fat coconut milk
