Notes

Cooking Notes

• Cottage cheese brands vary in thickness. If the pudding seems thin after chilling, stir in 1/2–1 tbsp additional chia seeds and refrigerate another 30–60 minutes.
• If the mixture is too thick after chilling, add a splash of milk and stir.
• This keeps well in the refrigerator for 3–4 days, making it great for meal prep.

Gut Health Notes

Chia seeds are rich in soluble fiber which supports gut microbiome diversity and helps promote satiety.

Cottage cheese adds protein and calcium while keeping the pudding creamy without heavy cream.

Coffee also contains polyphenols that may support beneficial gut bacteria.
