Vanilla Chia Seed Pudding

1. 1

   Place the chia seeds in a medium bowl. Add the almond milk (and yogurt if using, see note below), vanilla, maple syrup and a pinch of kosher salt. Whisk to combine.

2. 2

   Cover the bowl tightly with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, stirring occasionally. I recommend letting the pudding rest in the refrigerator overnight, but 4 hours will do if you're feeling antsy.

3. 3

   Before serving, stir the pudding to make sure that there aren't any clumps. Spoon pudding into bowls or glasses and garnish with toppings of your choice.
