    Do the chia seeds actually make it taste better? I've looked at some banana-chia pudding recipes but ended up making something without the chia seeds since I didn't see the point of adding the calories and I don't believe in superfoods and all that. But if there's a taste purpose I'm up for it.

    To me, chia seeds are tasteless. They're good for thickening stuff up and for the little boost of protein, fibre and omega's

    That's what I assumed.

    I had seen them at the grocery and heard of many uses for them

    I bought some and made chia pudding with added 85% dark chocolate, half and half, and a teaspoon of coconut oil. Splenda to taste

    It was weird at first but quite good

    I have added flax seeds at times.

    Chia seeds in salads and smoothies.

    Kind of a yummy something different

    I use cocoa powder, sweetened almond milk and add nuts and such. See now I think I have to go home and make one. lol


    Good idea using the sweetened milk! I cant stomach stevia and get headaches from artificial.
