I think everybody needs a little chocolate in their lives, but that’s just my opinion. Btw, when I speak of chocolate I mean the real stuff. I use 100% cacao powder all the time and YES, it’s bitter but that’s how I like it. Look for a minimum of 60% cacao and you should be good.

I recently fell in love with chia pudding…what a great idea to flavor it with chocolate!!
Thanks Sandi, it sure is tasty!
Yes, everyone needs chocolate. Anytime I try to give it up, I just want it more so I try to eat a little every day. This is an awesome, healthy way for me to get my fix! Thanks!
It’s the only way for me and I love it because I don’t have to give up on chocolate 🙂
Yummm. I need some of this! I guess I should just start making some chia pudding and this recipe will be my first one to try!
This is a fun and tasty recipe, think you will enjoy it!
I wonder if I could trick my husband into eating this. If I say “chia” he usually puts whatever it is back in the fridge and refuses to eat it… men. 🙂
Hahaha… yep, know exactly what you mean. He won’t be able to taste or feel the texture of the chia.
what a lovely way to make a dessert healthier. I have some chia seeds in the pantry too….
Yeah, definitely give it a try!
Oh this pudding sounds amazing! Like way too good, like the fact that it is vegan and gluten free. Gonna have to give this a try 🙂
