Ingredients

  • 1 cup plain Greek yogurt or your preferred yogurt variety
  • 2 tablespoons chia seeds
  • 1-2 tablespoons honey or maple syrup adjust to taste
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract optional
  • Fresh fruits such as berries, sliced mango, or kiwi for topping
  • Nuts or granola for added crunch optional

Instructions

Mix Ingredients:

  • In a medium-sized bowl, combine the Greek yogurt, chia seeds, and your preferred sweetener (honey or maple syrup) to taste.

Stir Well:

  • Mix thoroughly until the chia seeds are evenly distributed and the yogurt is creamy.

Flavor It:

  • If desired, add a splash of vanilla extract for enhanced flavor.

Refrigerate:

  • Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or up to 24 hours, to allow the chia seeds to thicken the yogurt.

Serve:

  • Once chilled, scoop the chia seed yogurt into serving bowls or jars.

Top It Off:

  • Add your favorite fresh fruits, such as berries, sliced mango, or kiwi.

Enjoy!

  • Serve chilled as a nutritious breakfast, snack, or dessert.

Notes

  • Storage: Store any leftover chia seed yogurt in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
  • Customizable: Feel free to adjust the sweetness and toppings based on your preferences. This recipe is versatile and can be made with various fruits, nuts, and spices.

Pro Tips:

  • Texture Adjustments:
    For a thinner consistency, add a splash of milk or plant-based milk. For a thicker, pudding-like consistency, use more chia seeds.
  • Flavor Enhancements:
    Experiment with different flavors by adding a touch of cinnamon, a sprinkle of cocoa powder, or a drizzle of peanut butter. The possibilities are endless!
