Chocolate Pumpkin Chia Seed Pudding

Hey blog readers! I just wanted to stop by quick with a fun new breakfast recipe for pumpkin season. This is a grain free version of overnight oats. Chia seeds are a great source of vegetarian based Omega 3's in the form of ALA. This is a great breakfast choice for anyone who doesn't have much time in the morning to prepare. This should be made the day before and left in the fridge overnight. You can heat it up the next morning or eat it cold the choice is yours.
