Can I use a different milk for this?

Totally. You can use your milk of choice for this recipe. I just am really lovin' the coconut/almond milk blend but use your favourite milk here and the chia pudding will still turn out fine.

Is chia seed pudding healthy?

Chia seed pudding can be really good for you by packing in a lot of nutrition into every bite. Depending on what you add to your chia seed pudding, you can really amp up the nutritious punch it packs.

Starting with a base of chia seeds is perfect though because chia seeds themselves are super healthy! They're a source of fibre, plant-based omega 3 fats, and protein.

Plus, they're full of antioxidants and vitamins and minerals like magnesium, calcium, manganese, phosphorus.

Top your chia pudding with fruit for an extra antioxidant boost!
