=====

• Dish name: Keto Berry Chia Pudding

• Cuisine: Health Food

• Preparation time: 10 minutes (plus at least 2 hours chilling time)

• Yield: 2 servings

Ingredients:

• 1/4 cup chia seeds

• 1 cup unsweetened coconut milk (or almond milk)

• 1/2 cup mixed berries (strawberries, raspberries, blueberries), fresh or frozen

• 1-2 tablespoons erythritol (or other keto-friendly sweetener to taste)

• 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional)

Instructions:

1. In a bowl or jar, mix the chia seeds with coconut milk and sweetener.

2. Stir in the vanilla extract if using.

3. If using fresh berries, mash them slightly and stir them into the mixture. If using frozen berries, add them as they are.

4. Cover the bowl or close the jar and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, ideally overnight, until the chia seeds have absorbed the liquid and the pudding has a thick consistency.

5. Before serving, stir the pudding to ensure the chia seeds are evenly distributed. If the pudding is too thick, you can add a little more coconut or almond milk to reach your desired consistency.

6. Serve with additional berries on top for garnish.

Tips and Tricks:

• Thick Consistency: If your chia pudding isn't thick enough after the initial chill time, let it sit for longer or add more chia seeds and chill again.

• Flavor Infusions: Infuse your milk with flavors like cinnamon, nutmeg, or cardamom by warming it with these spices before cooling and adding to the chia seeds.

• Perfect Sweetness: Sweeten your pudding to taste, remembering that berries will also add natural sweetness.

• Texture: For a smoother texture, blend the milk and berries before adding it to the chia seeds.

• Berry Choice: Using different types of berries can alter the flavor profile, so feel free to experiment with your favorites.

• Layering: Make a layered chia pudding by setting the initial chia layer, then adding a layer of coconut cream or nut butter, and topping with more chia mixture and berries.

• Storage: Chia pudding can be refrigerated for up to 5 days, so it’s great for preparing in advance.

• Protein Boost: Add a scoop of your favorite keto-friendly protein powder to the milk before mixing with the chia seeds for an extra protein kick.

• Creaminess: For a creamier pudding, use a can of full-fat coconut milk.

With these tips and the basic recipe, you'll be able to whip up a Keto Berry Chia Pudding that's both satisfying and aligned with your dietary needs. Enjoy it as a delicious start to your day or a sweet end to your evening meal!
