If you like to take care of yourself and you like to wear a healthy and balanced diet I'm sure you are going to love this cherry chia pudding.
Because of its delicious flavor we can use it to have breakfast or snackar. And, although the preparation process is long due to the rest time, its preparation is simple so our children can help us prepare it.
Without a doubt, the most striking thing about this pudding is the process of transformation of the chia seeds that are capable of turning the milk into a gelatinous, sweet and soft paste thanks to its mucilage. This soluble fiber is very beneficial, above all, to keep cholesterol at bay and also to combat constipation.
Obviously you can use the milk or vegetable drink that you like the most. I have opted for almond milk to get a version suitable for vegan e lactose intolerant. Try it with coconut milk ... you'll see how delicious!

Ingredients
- 220 g of almond milk
- 40 g chia seeds
- 1 teaspoon (dessert size) agave syrup
- 1 teaspoon (dessert size) vanilla paste or 1 vanilla bean
- 15 cherries
Preparation
We make a cut lengthwise in the vanilla bean. We open it and, with the help of a pointed knife, remove all the seeds and the we mix with the almond milk. We can skip this step if we use vanilla paste.
In a large bowl we combine all ingredients except cherries. We stir well so that the ingredients are integrated. Let it rest for 4 hours although it is better to leave it overnight.
After the time, we pour chia seeds rest in 2 serving bowls. We can use cups, bowls or bottles but it is recommended that they be transparent so that the effect of the layers can be seen well.
We wash the cherries well, remove 2 for decoration and, to the rest, we remove the peduncle or tail and the we bone.
We cuts each cherries into 4 pieces.
We put the cherries on top of the rested chia seeds that, after standing, will have compacted to form a solid texture.
For decorate we can use the cherries we reserved. We just have to wash them, dry them and place them in the center of the containers.
