  • Chia seeds. Chia seeds thicken the recipe and are also healthy and nutritious.

    How long do they last in the fridge for? Can I make 5 of them Sunday night and have them stay in the fridge until Friday?

    • Hi Dorothy,

      We recommend up to 4 days you might get away with it until Friday though. The reason being is that chia keeps absorbing fluids so it might end up like jello.

      Hope that helps.

    Just wanted to let you know I eat this quite frequently. After I heat it up I add butter and cream, and it tastes very similar to cream of wheat!
