NOTE: If you find your chia pudding is not setting up after being in the fridge for a few hours, you can do a couple of things:
1. Your chia seeds may be a bit old- in this case, you can add a little xanthan gum or glucomannan powder to thicken it probably just 1/8th tsp to 1/4 tsp per serving that you make of this.
2. For future times with the same orders seeds, you can use a little less liquid for those seeds.
