Looking for a healthy snack that’s low in carbs and high in fiber? My Single Person Keto Chia Pudding is the answer.
Keto chia pudding 1 serving
Well, it turns out that the chia pets we all remember from way back when were not just cute clay displays with super silly sprouts on them.
Chia is an amazing seed packed with fiber and other nutritional superpowers.
Sugar-free pudding with chia
I created this sugar-free pudding recipe with chia and chocolate chip cookies for one person so that my dearest friend Deb could have a convenient single-serve meal.
Deb, like many people over 50, eats a high-protein, low-carbohydrate diet and seeks fiber for regularity.
We hope you love this healthy, creamy, low-carb dessert as much as we do.

chia seeds in water
Soaking chia seeds in water draws out the soluble fiber, making a great chia water.
To make chia water, all you need to do is add about half a teaspoon of chia seeds to a quart of water.
It’s a great way to get some of the soluble fiber found in water and stay hydrated.

And this keto chia pudding recipe will help keep things moving, too. Above is the nutritional information for this healthy vegan recipe.
chia seeds for weight loss
Consuming chia seeds can make you feel full and full, which can lead to weight loss, and chia seeds are also effective in relieving constipation.
Too much dietary fiber has negative effects
But be careful! The biggest problem with dietary fiber is when you consume it without enough water.
Without proper hydration, the fibers don’t fully expand and become bulky, and when they enter your digestive system, they stick to your colon and act like concrete.
This is the opposite of the desired effect, as instead of revitalizing a sluggish digestive system, it causes constipation.
Chia seeds soaking time
I like to soak chia seeds in boiling water for at least 4 hours to soften them and make them easier to digest.
chia seed recipe
I sometimes like to add chia seeds and their infusion to bone broth smoothies I make with Kettle and Firebone Broth.
