Ingredients
  

1/2 cup chia seeds

2 cups almond milk (or your preferred milk)

2 tablespoons maple syrup (or honey for a non-vegan option)

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1 cup mixed berries (such as strawberries, blueberries, raspberries, and blackberries)

Fresh mint leaves for garnish

A pinch of sea salt

Instructions
 

Combine Ingredients: In a medium-sized mixing bowl, whisk together the almond milk, maple syrup, vanilla extract, and a pinch of sea salt until everything is well blended and smooth.

    Add Chia Seeds: Gradually incorporate the chia seeds into the liquid mixture, stirring continuously to ensure they are evenly distributed. This step is crucial to prevent clumping and ensure each seed can absorb the liquid.

      Refrigerate: Cover the bowl tightly with plastic wrap or a lid. Place it in the refrigerator for a minimum of 4 hours, or overnight for optimal creaminess. As the chia seeds swell, the mixture will thicken to a delightful pudding consistency.

        Prepare the Berries: While the pudding is setting, rinse your mixed berries under cold water and gently pat them dry with a paper towel. For strawberries, remove the hull and slice them into bite-sized pieces.

          Assemble & Serve: Once the chia pudding has reached your desired thickness, give it a good stir. Spoon the pudding into individual serving bowls or jars, and generously layer the prepared mixed berries on top.

            Garnish: Finish your presentation by adding a few fresh mint leaves on top. This will not only enhance the visual appeal but also add a refreshing aroma.

              Enjoy: Serve chilled and savor your nutritious and utterly delightful berry-infused chia seed pudding! Perfect for breakfast or as a healthy snack.
