Instructions
To make 1 chia pudding
Add the milk, chia seeds, sweetener and flavor of choice to a blender and mix for about 20 seconds.
Let it sit for about 3-5 minutes and then come back and blend again for another 20 seconds.
Pour into small glass jars and seal with a lid. Keep in the fridge until ready to eat. (up to 5 days).
To make a large batch
Triple or quadruple recipe for 1 flavor and make the same as you would a single pudding. Then pour into 3-4 small cups and store them in the fridge.
Rinse out the blender between each flavor and repeat until you have 12 cups of chia seed pudding ready to grab and go.

Notes
The amount of sweetener needed will depend on your taste and the sweetness of the plant-based milk that you use.
You may want to start with no sweetener and then taste the pudding and add sweetener at the end.
If you want pudding with whole chia seeds
Blend all of the ingredients except for the chia and then add the chia seeds at the end and stir.
Then stir again 5 minutes later and then again 15 minutes after that.
Store in the fridge for 3-4 hours before eating.
