Chia pudding for dessert? It's not just for breakfast anymore, and this gourmet version with coconut milk is proof! The flavour mix of mango and coconut milk is always a winner, and in this recipe it serves as a great way to introduce (or re-introduce) chia seeds to your family. You can make the chia pudding part of this recipe up to a day in advance, but altogether it only takes a little over 30 minutes to prepare - no stress, no mess! Layer the coulis and chia pudding together just before serving, top with mango chunks and coconut strips, and let the magic happen. The mango coulis will keep for several days in the fridge and is delicious on just about anything!
