- Vanilla protein powder – enhances the flavor and significantly increases the protein, turning this into a more filling meal or snack.
- Milk of choice – hydrates the chia seeds and helps the mixture blend smoothly; the type of milk used can also impact creaminess and flavor.
- Frozen blueberries – melt into the pudding and naturally sweeten it with juicy bursts of blueberry flavor and antioxidants.
- Cacao nibs (optional) – provide a crunchy texture and rich chocolatey flavor without added sugar, adding contrast to the creamy pudding.

Recipe FAQS
Chia seeds are packed with fiber and are great for gut health. When paired with protein powder, milk and berries chia pudding becomes a protein and antioxidant packed breakfast.
I do not suggest doing this as it will alter the consistency and flavor of the chia pudding. If you must leave out the protein powder then add in an extra tablespoon of chia seeds, 1 tablespoon of sweetener and ½ teaspoon of vanilla.
I like to top my chia pudding with fruit, cacao nibs, granola or bee pollen.
Recipe Pro-Tips
Use a good tasting protein powder for the best tasting chia pudding. My favorite whey proteins are Ballerina Farms and Mind Body Green. For vegan protein I love Ora Organic or Truvani protein powder.
