Mocha Chia Pudding


Chia is a seed that comes from a flowering plant from the mint family. Native to Mexico and Guatemala they are a rich source of omega 3 fatty acids. Omega fatty acids help support cardiovascular health, joint and muscle inflammation and cognitive health- It is said that fatty acids can help reduce dementia. 



2T White Chia Seeds
1/2 - 1t instant coffee granules, depending on desired strength
1t hot water
1c  chocolate soymilk
2T Hershey's chocolate syrup


Measure 2 Tbsp of Chia seeds into a 2 cup shaker or any container with a lid. In a measuring cup add instant coffee granules & 1 tsp of hot water to dissolve. To coffee add 1c light chocolate soymilk and pour mixture over Chia seeds. Place lid on shaker or container and shake pudding mixture to prevent clumping of seeds. Place container in fridge for 5 minutes, then shake again. Place container in fridge for at least 4 hours so seeds will soak up liquid and swell. When pudding has reached desire consistency stir in sugar free chocolate syrup and serve.
