These days I prefer something a whole lot lower in carbs but want it to be just as tasty and filling. I thought any type of oatmeal like food would be a thing of the past.<\/h4>\nAnd then I discovered chia seeds!<\/h4>\nChia seeds create a gel when mixed with liquids. They are the perfect way to create a deliciously creamy low carb pudding and it makes a great faux oatmeal substitute as well!<\/h4>\nThe chia seeds add a bit of bite so it reminds me of oatmeal or a thick tapioca type pudding. This is a basic vanilla but there are many flavor combinations possible especially once you start adding your favorite mix ins.<\/h4>\nVanilla Chia Pudding<\/span><\/h3>\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/remakemyplate.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/vanilla-chia-pudding-500-x-400.jpg\")

The lighter colored seeds blend into the pudding and aren’t as noticeable in color.<\/h4>\nOnce you have your base recipe down you can easily mix things up a bit. Add your favorite low carb fruit to your chia pudding. I found some freeze dried strawberries at the store and topped my pudding with some of those as well as some hazelnuts. They added a bit of crunch and sweetness to the pudding without adding lots of carbs.<\/h4>\n

Top your pudding with sliced almonds, favorite chopped nuts, a bit of sugar free chocolate, dried coconut flakes, some low carb fruits and more.<\/h4>\nWhen it comes to choosing a yogurt for your pudding go with one that has a higher fat content. Fage Total is available with 5% fat. There are also other full fat yogurts out there that can be used. Avoid the low fat\/no fat variety as these are much higher in carbs.<\/h4>\nNutritional Information:<\/h4>\nThese numbers will vary based on the type of almond milk used and the type of yogurt. The nutritional information below includes sliced almonds. If you add other items to your chia pudding remember to include nutritional information for those items in the total:<\/h4>\n\n- \n
