Coconut Pomegranate Chocolate Chia Seed Pudding

I found the original recipe at this blog post and decided to make this for date night for Markus and I. I can’t believe how good it is!

The chia seeds are loaded with healthy fats and good-for-you vitamins, while the pomegranate is loaded with antioxidants. When you make this yourself, it’ll be hard to stop at just one serving!

Ingredients

• 2 cups coconut milk (from a carton)
• 2 tablespoons maple syrup
• ½ teaspoon pure vanilla extract
• ½ cup organic chia seeds (where to buy)
• pomegranate seeds, for topping
• chopped semi-sweet chocolate, for chopping
• unsweetened coconut shreds, for topping

Instructions

1. In a small bowl, combine the milk, sugar, and vanilla extract. Stir until combined. Sprinkle on the chia seeds and stir them in thoroughly.
2. Pour mixture into a quart jar and refrigerate overnight, or until it reaches the desired thickness, shaking occasionally.
   Serve pudding with pomegranate seeds, chopped chocolate, and unsweetened coconut shreds sprinkled on top.
