For the first time in a long time I am not hungry mid morning due to Chia 'pudding" for breakfast.
I am feeling almost too satisfied so need to cut back on the quantity but essentially I have had 1/4 cup chia seeds soaked overnight in 1 cup of almond or coconut milk. Then topped with a dollop of yoghurt, frozen blueberries, few toasted nuts and some toasted coconut chips. I did do a tiny drizzle of maple syrup as well.
As said, I think I need to reduce the chia a little as I am feeling a little too satisfied but surely a healthy breakfast option.
Does anyone else have chia for breakfast?

I too occasionally eat chia porridge for breakfast & agree with you about how it does seem to fill you. But I think it may be a combination of the fat content too which will keep you fuller for longer as your body digests it all, whereas carbs/cereal may be absorbed (by some) more quickly. This is my understanding of some of the Banting (low carb, high fat) reading that I have done.
Its a nice breakfast, but does take some pre-organisation as its too late in the morning when I wish that I had soaked the seeds the evening before for my brekkie

In summer I make these popsicles to have as dessert instead of ice cream. You can use whatever fruit you like:
Raspberry & Coconut Chia Popsicles
½ cup lite coconut milk
½ cup unsweetened almond milk
¾ cup raspberries
2 tablespoons chia seeds
1 tablespoon shredded coconut
sugar/honey to taste
Combine all ingredients except raspberries in a large container. Mix well and close container; refrigerate 4 hours so the chia expands.
Spoon the mixture into the popsicle moulds and push a few raspberries to different levels into each mould (use a chopstick).
Put the lids on and freeze for 5-6 hours.

Chia seeds are a third fat (100g has 30g of fat) plus coconut milk is a quarter fat so the fat content's probably slowing digestion and creating fullness for longer qua oc cho mua o dau

Raspberry porridge with chia seeds
Today, I used the best part of my raspberry shopping for my summer second breakfast. I recommend it for those who only drink coffee in the morning. The rolled oats and chia seeds ensure that it satisfies our hunger very well, and the empty bowl means that you are sorry the dish was so small.
The inspiration for this dish comes from "Smaki zycia" ("Flavour of Life" by Agnieszka Maciag.
Ingredients:
100g of raspberries
3 teaspoons of honey
3 tablespoons of rolled oats
2 teaspoons of chia seeds
decoration
3 teaspoons of natural yoghurt
raspberries, blueberries, banana slices, cashews, sesame seeds
the complete recipe is here
