Instructions

Add the ground chia seeds to a bowl.
Add the milk, blue matcha powder, sweetener, vanilla protein powder, and a pinch of salt.
Stir everything together, making sure the chia seeds are evenly distributed.
Let it sit for one minute, then add the yogurt (reserving some to add to the top) and stir again. This second stir helps prevents lumps of chia seeds from forming together.
Spoon the chia pudding into a serving bowl and top with a dollop of yogurt.
Serve your chia pudding warm or refrigerate for 30 minutes to an hour to serve chilled.
Serve as is or add toppings like vegan yogurt, blueberries, fresh fruit, and more.

Notes

Making Chia Pudding Blue

Depending on the intensity of your blue matcha powder, you may add more or less powder to your chia pudding. Begin with 2 teaspoons and add more as needed.

I've noticed the blue matcha powder can get "lumpy". You can use a fine mesh strainer to press the blue powder through to break up the lumps before adding it to the chia pudding.
