Notes

  • This pudding can be prepared a day in advance and stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
  • For a smoother texture, blend the strawberries with the coconut milk before mixing with chia seeds.
  • Feel free to substitute strawberries with other fresh fruits like blueberries, raspberries, or mango.
  • If you prefer a thinner pudding, add more coconut milk to adjust consistency.
  • Use unsweetened coconut milk to reduce added sugars and calories.
