Notes
- Variations & Substitutions:
- Storage:
- If you can't finish this delicious chocolate coconut chia pudding all at once, it can be stored in the refrigerator for several days in an airtight container or covered jars.
- To Make Chia Seed Pudding:
- Stir 4 tablespoons of chia seeds (¼ cup) into 1 cup of plant milk or milk of choice. Stir until well combined and you have broken up any clumps. Store covered in the fridge for about 30 minutes or until it has a nice, thick, pudding-like consistency—some like the texture better after resting it for 2 hours in the fridge. You can also let it sit overnight in the refrigerator (best for meal prepping).

- Note: Making this flavored chocolate coconut chia pudding with already prepared regular chia seed pudding allows you to control the desired thickness of this delicious chocolate breakfast meal.
