Chocolate Chia Pudding (Dairy, Gluten/Grain and Refined Sugar Free)

Chia seeds, known for their role in the "chia pets" are also super food for our bodies.  This antioxidant is rich in Omega-3, protein, fiber and much more.
One way our family enjoys this seed is by making it into a pudding.  One of our favourites is chocolate,  however it is also delicious with pure vanilla or almond flavour.


Ingredients (for 2-3 people)

• 1/2 cup ground chia/salba seeds (white or black) *
• 2 tablespoons raw cocoa
• 1 1/2 cup unsweetened almond milk or rice milk 
• 1-2 tablespoons agave, honey or pure maple syrup

Directions

1.     Mix all ingredients together and let sit for at least 10 minutes to thicken.

* * you can use whole chia seeds as well however I have heard that ground has less risk of sticking to the insides of your digestive tract.
