Kiwi and Chia Seed Pudding
This chia pudding recipe is very easy: All you have to do is whisk together a 4-ingredient basic chia pudding, let it rest for one hour or overnight and then layer with Greek yogurt and diced kiwi.
Directions
1. Combine chia seeds, milk, maple syrup, and vanilla extract in a glass container or mason jar and chill for at least one hour (or overnight – better) in your refrigerator.
2. Remove the chia pudding from the refrigerator and give it a good stir. The chia seeds should have absorbed the liquid and have a thick consistency.
3. In two glass containers, divide the chia pudding into one layer, then add a layer of Greek yogurt. Top each chia pudding parfait with diced kiwi. Enjoy!
Tips for the kiwi chia pudding recipe
