Instructions

In a bowl or measuring jar, add yogurt, chia seeds, milk and stir well.
2 Tablespoons Chia Seeds, ⅔ Cup Reduced Fat Coconut Milk, ⅓ Cup Greek Yogurt
Stir well to combine ensuring that the chia seeds are evenly distributed. Stir the mixture until chia seeds are well incorporated into the liquid.
Cover the bowl with a plate/plastic wrap. Place it in the fridge for an hour.
After an hour, uncover the bowl and stir again thoroughly. Break any clumps and stir well.
Cover it, put it back in the fridge and let it set for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight. This allows the chia seeds to absorb the liquid and get a pudding-like consistency.
Peel and dice ripe mango and add them into a blender jar.
1 Big Fresh Mango
Blend until smooth without any lumps.
Transfer the pureed mango into a container with air tight lid and keep it in the fridge.
Next morning, take the bowl out of the fridge.
Give the pudding a good stir as chia seeds tend to settle.
Scoop out the pudding into bowls or glasses, stir in mango pulp.
Top it with fresh mango cubes.

Notes

Ripe Mango: For maximum sweetness and taste, use ripe mangoes. Ripe mango's natural sugars will improve the pudding's flavour without needing extra sugar.

Good Quality Chia Seeds: To ensure the best texture, use good-quality black chia seeds. High-quality fresh chia seeds will absorb liquid better, giving a pudding-like consistency.

Consistent Mixing: Give the mixture a good stir while combining ingredients to avoid clumps.

Setting Time: The pudding must be allowed to set for a minimum of four hours, but preferably overnight. This allows the liquid to be absorbed by the chia seeds, resulting in a creamy consistency.
