Chia is one of superfoods.
Though very small in size but this seeds are full of nutrients and has many health benefits.
This Chia with fruits is a great way to start your day ....if you want to make it vegetarian plus vegan replace the honey with maple syrup or agave syrup or any plant based sweetners or simply skip it.
You can use any milk of your choice animal or plant based.
You can top it with any fruits of your choice..as strawberry is in season or rather easily available now so I have added it to the coconut milk.

Steps

Overnight+prep.

1

Blend the strawberry and make it into a fine puree. Add the coconut milk and honey and blend in all three.
2

Pour it in a glass or Mason jar. Add Chia seeds and stir it and wait till it starts swelling up. Once it starts swelling up you can keep it in the fridge. After an hour or so stir the chia seeds so that it gets evenly distributed and gets space to swell up further otherwise it will clump up and form a lump. Close and let it soak and swell overnight in the coconut milk, strawberry and honey concoction.
