Great recipe! I used a less lemon zest the second time I made it because it was a bit too strong for me the first time.
I just made this lemon chia pudding and it was delicious. Thank you so much for this recipe.
I can’t wait to make it again.
Just made and tastes wonderful. I used half almond and half coconut milk!
