I know that I am late to the chia seed bandwagon, but this recipe is too good to keep to myself. With minimal effort, plant milk, protein powder, and a handful of chia seeds, you can make an incredible, healthy snack.

Chia seeds are a superfood for a reason. Not only are they rich in fiber, antioxidants, minerals, and heart-healthy omega-3 fatty acids, but they are also easy to prepare. You can make chia seed pudding, for example, by simply letting the seeds sit in liquid for a few hours. Did you know that chia seeds can absorb up to 10 times their weight? 

Chia seeds used to be a niche ingredient that you could only find at health food stores, but now you can find them everywhere. Head on over to your local grocery store and get yourself some. This chia seed pudding recipe is calling your name.

Why drink wholesome?

This recipe was made with drink wholesome chocolate protein powder. It is perfect for adding to recipes. Most protein powders are not because they are made with protein concentrates and isolates, foods stripped of everything but the protein. 

Unlike real foods, protein concentrates and isolates are missing the nutrients that make food taste good. In other words, they turn delicious recipes into hockey pucks. With enough trial and error, you can make these protein powders work, but how much chalky pudding are you willing to make? 

Another reason why drink wholesome is perfect for baking is that it is sweetened with monk fruit. Monk fruit, also known as lo han guo, is a small, melon-like round fruit native to Southeast Asia. Monk fruit sweetener is made by removing the seeds and skin, crushing the fruit, and collecting the juice, which is then dried into a powder. 

We use monk fruit sweetener because it has a sweetness similar to that of sugar. Artificial sweeteners and stevia, on the other hand, are either way too sweet, or have a bitter aftertaste. Order samples to experience the monk fruit sweetness for yourself.

Now without further ado, here is the best protein powder chia pudding recipe.
