"Which Chia Seed Pudding Recipes Will Keep You Glowing All Week?"

 

Sis, let’s talk about an easy, healthy, and so darn pretty breakfast or snack that your body will thank you for — chia seed pudding.

Now, I know you’ve seen it floating around on Instagram, but here’s the tea: it’s not just trendy. Chia seeds are a powerhouse for women over 50. They’re packed with fiber to keep things moving, omega-3s for heart health, and plant-based protein to help balance blood sugar. And the best part? Once you mix them up, the fridge does all the work for you.

Whether you’re navigating menopause, keeping your blood pressure in check, or just wanting something delicious that fuels your glow, chia seed pudding is your new BFF.


The Perfect Chia Seed Pudding Base

Before we get creative, here’s the simple base recipe:

Ingredients (1 serving):

  • 3 tbsp chia seeds

  • 1 cup unsweetened almond milk (or coconut milk)

  • 1–2 tsp pure maple syrup or stevia (optional)

  • 1/2 tsp pure vanilla extract

Instructions:

  1. Whisk everything in a jar or bowl.

  2. Let sit for 5 minutes, then whisk again so you don’t get clumps.

  3. Cover and refrigerate at least 4 hours or overnight.

  4. Stir and add toppings before enjoying.
