I'm looking for some really good Chia recipes. There has to be more than making pudding out of it and putting it on top of yogurt.
Anyone?

Oh I use it for all sorts of things:
Overnight oats - throw it in with anything really
Chia Fresca - old drink, runners love it (http://ohsheglows.com/2013/03/01/chia-fresca-a-natural-energy-drink/)
Pudding recipes I like: (I know you said you do this already, but new recipes are always amazing!)

Those are my favorites anyway.0 -
I make a coffee "smoothie" with them.
1 Tablespoon chia seeds
1 cup almond milk
1/2 cup brewed coffee (I like french vanilla), cooled
a couple ice cubes
a drop of stevia (optional)
Blend it all together and it's a delicious breakfast on the go!0 -

Add them to soups, stews, or gravies where they also act as a thickener. If I ever stir fried, I'd add them there. I have store-bought breads where they are used as a whole grain, though you could probably add them to plenty of baked goods. You could add them to meatballs or stuffing. And though you could add them to any green salad as is, you might be able to get them to grow to make sprouts.0

I just liked the basic coconut milk pudding with a little maple syrup to sweeten0
