Chia Seed Pudding | Kevin Wagonfoot
Look, I’m not going to pretend I invented chia seed pudding, but I will say this: it’s saved me on more mornings than I can count. You mix a few things together the night before, sleep in without guilt, and wake up to something that actually tastes like dessert. That’s my kind of meal prep.
The beauty of this recipe is that it’s so forgiving it’s almost hard to mess up. I’ve made it half-asleep at 10 PM, with whatever milk I had on hand, and it still turned out great. No cooking, no complicated steps, just five ingredients standing between you and breakfast.
Why This Works for Keto
Chia seeds are basically keto gold—they’re packed with fiber and healthy fats while staying incredibly low in net carbs. The pudding absorbs all that richness and turns creamy without any sugar crashes or mid-morning hunger. It keeps me satisfied for hours, which means I’m not hunting through the kitchen at 11 AM looking for something I shouldn’t be eating.

Tips & Variations
- Don't skip letting it sit overnight. The chia seeds need time to absorb the liquid and work their magic. Trust me on this one.
- Stir it well before eating—the seeds settle to the bottom and you want them distributed evenly throughout.
- Swap your milk based on what you have: coconut, almond, or heavy cream all work beautifully and keep you in ketosis.
