Why this meal fits low carb

Chia pudding using unsweetened coconut milk can fit low carb when portions are measured. Chia adds fiber; net carbs depend on the milk and any sweetener. Taste after overnight soak before adding berries.

Swaps

Almond milk (unsweetened) instead of coconut. Stevia or monk fruit if you need sweetness — avoid sugar syrups.

Meal prep

Mix at night; eat cold next morning. Keeps 3 days refrigerated.

Ingredients

  • 1/4 cup chia seeds
  • 1 cup unsweetened coconut milk
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
  • Pinch of salt
  • Optional: 2 tbsp unsweetened shredded coconut
  • Optional: few raspberries on top

Instructions

  1. Whisk chia, coconut milk, vanilla, and salt in a jar.
  2. Refrigerate at least 4 hours or overnight, stirring once.
  3. Divide between bowls; top with coconut or berries if using.

Tips

Chia fiber counts toward net carbs on labels — this is moderate carb, not strict keto.
