Valentine's Day Dessert: Strawberry Chia Pudding

Strawberry Chia Pudding
Makes 2 Servings • 1 1/2 cups frozen whole strawberries • 3 Tbsp. white chia seeds (black chia seeds will discolor the pudding) • 1 Tbsp. coconut nectar or pure maple syrup • 1 tsp. lemon juice • Pinch of salt • 1/2 cup + 2-3 Tbsp. plain low-fat nondairy milk In a blender, combine the strawberries, chia seeds, nectar or syrup, lemon juice, salt and 1/2 cup plus 2 tablespoons of the milk. Puree until the seeds are fully pulverized and the pudding begins to thicken. (It will thicken more as it cools.) Add the extra 1 tablespoon of milk if needed to blend. Transfer the mixture to a large bowl or dish and refrigerate until chilled, about an hour or more. (It will thicken more with chilling, but really can be eaten right away.) Chia seeds note: In this recipe, it is best is to use white chia seeds, as black will discolor the pudding. Photo from here, with thanks.
