Description
I find the best ratio of chia seeds to milk is 2 tbsp: 1/2 cup milk- the protein powder, if using, will also thicken it slightly. Tweak it to your desired consistency!
Ingredients
1/2 cup chia seeds
2 cups milk of choice (more as needed)
optional: 4 scoops vanilla protein powder or collagen
1–2 tbsp sweetener of choice (honey, maple syrup)- I leave this out if I use protein powder.
Instructions
1. Whisk all ingredients together. Let sit for 2 hours to overnight. I prefer to let it thicken slightly before dividing into jars. Divide into jars, top and enjoy!
