Preparation Instructions
- Combine chia seeds, milk, lemon juice, lemon zest, and 2 tablespoons of honey in a medium-sized bowl. Mix ingredients together with a spoon.
- Stir the mixture again 4-5 minutes later so the chia seeds do not clump together.
- While chia seeds are soaking, place blueberries and 1 tablespoon of honey in a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave on high for 45-60 seconds, or until berries begin to burst.
- Smash blueberries with a spoon until a thick, jam-like consistency is reached.
- Add equal amounts of the blueberry jam and chia seed mixture to four 6-ounce jars or containers.
- Cover and store in the refrigerator for at least an hour before serving or up to overnight. Chia pudding will last in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
Notes
Be sure to grab whole chia seeds, not ground. Use glass jars with lids for storage.
