Chia Seed Pudding with Coconut Milk and Honey

Ingredients:

• 1/4 cup chia seeds
• 1 cup coconut milk
• 2 tablespoons honey (or to taste)
• 1/2 teaspoon ground cardamom
• Fresh fruits and nuts for garnish (optional)

Instructions:

1. Mix Ingredients:
   • In a mixing bowl, combine the chia seeds, coconut milk, honey, and ground cardamom. Stir well to ensure the chia seeds are evenly distributed and not clumped together.
2. Let it Set:
   • Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or overnight. Stir the mixture once or twice in the first hour to prevent clumping. The chia seeds will absorb the liquid and expand, forming a pudding-like consistency.
3. Serve:
   • Once the pudding has set, give it a good stir. Serve the chia seed pudding in individual bowls or glasses.
   • Garnish with fresh fruits and nuts of your choice for added texture and flavor (optional).
