Chia Seed Pudding with Blueberry, Pineapple and Strawberry Swirl

Makes 4 - 1/2 cup servings.
Ingredients:
2/3 cup chia seeds
1 1/2 cups plant-based milk of your choice
1 Tablespoon + 1 teaspoon agave syrup
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 cup wild blueberries
1/2 cup strawberries, finely diced
1/2 cup pineapple, finely diced
1 Tablespoon coconut flakes
Directions
1. Place chia seeds, plant-based milk, syrup and vanilla extract in a large mixing bowl. Stir well to combine.
2. Portion mixture into small serving cups or bowls. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1-2 hours, giving them a quick stir a couple times throughout to ensure that the seeds absorb most of the liquid.
3. Meanwhile, create a smooth puree using a small blender.
4. Pour the puree over the individual cups of pudding.
5. Top with the diced pineapple and strawberries.
6. Lightly toast the coconut flakes in a small frying pan. Sprinkle over the fruit.
Of course, you can use whatever fruits delight you. It's also fun and delicious to top with trail mix. Enjoy!
