But after trying them, I was hooked! What does this mean for you? It’s simple: a delicious, healthy, and convenient way to boost your daily nutrition. This recipe is not just a meal; it’s a lifestyle upgrade. Its great, trust me, its wonderful.

Now, I make this Chia Seed Fruit Boost almost every week. It's perfect for busy mornings or as a guilt-free dessert. Its crazy, but sometimes I even prepare a big batch on Sunday evening and grab it throughout the week. Don't be scared to add some extra fruit, too. One time I added some chopped mangos and it was awesome!

🍽 Ingredients
📖 Instructions
- Combine chia seeds and liquid: In a mason jar or container, mix together chia seeds and your choice of liquid (almond milk, coconut milk, or regular milk). A ratio of 1:4 (chia seeds to liquid) works well.
- Sweeten (optional): If desired, add sweetener such as maple syrup, honey, or stevia. Start with a small amount (1-2 teaspoons) and adjust to taste. Remember: you can allways add a littel more.
- Add flavoring (optional): Enhance the flavor with a dash of vanilla extract, cinnamon, or a pinch of sea salt.
- Stir well: Ensure that all the chia seeds are well combined with the liquid. There should be no clumps of seeds sticking together.
- Let it sit: Cover the mason jar or container and let it sit in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours, or preferably overnight. This allows the chia seeds to absorb the liquid and create a pudding-like consistency. I would tell you to wait longer, but I can't stop myself, what about you?
- Stir again: After the chia seeds have soaked, give the mixture another good stir to break up any remaining clumps and ensure even consistency. Its important to do this!
- Prepare your fruits: While the chia seeds are soaking, prepare your favorite fruits. Wash, peel, and chop them into bite-sized pieces. Berries, bananas, peaches, mangoes, and kiwi all work great. Don't forget the raspberries!
- Layer the fruit: Once the chia pudding has thickened, layer it with your prepared fruits in a glass or bowl. Alternate layers of chia pudding and fruit for an appealing presentation. What about some sprinkles?
- Add toppings (optional): Finish with your favorite toppings such as shredded coconut, granola, chopped nuts, or a drizzle of honey or maple syrup. It really depends on your taste and you can experement, right?
- Serve immediately or store: Serve the Chia Seed Fruit Boost immediately for a refreshing snack or dessert. Alternatively, you can store it in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Just be sure to add the fruit right before serving to prevent it from getting soggy. Its good, like REALLY good.
📝 Notes
- Adjust the amount of sweetener to your liking.
- For a thicker consistency, use less liquid or more chia seeds.
- Feel free to experiment with different fruits and toppings.
