For a creamier pudding,  you can blend this pudding in a blender for a smoother, creamier texture. I personally like the flecks in my pudding, since it reminds me of tapioca pudding. One of my favorites!  Serve this Overnight Vanilla Chia Seed Pudding with plenty of fresh seasonal fruit, nuts, seeds, or serve with chocolate shavings and raspberries for a decadent dessert.   You can also spike your pudding with a dash of cinnamon, ginger, and cloves for a chai latte flavor. This is a versatile little recipe that can be served for either for breakfast or dessert.
