You must have seen hundreds upon hundreds of chia puddings. I am not saying mine is better. I just wanna share how I would have done it differently, with a bit of chefy touch. And I know the combination listed below is a bit weird, but trust me on this. You will get sweetness and tartness with some savory and tangy aftertaste.
Amazin' Graze's Chia Seeds, Peanut Butter & Antioxidant Berry Trail Mix
On a side note, grated frozen strawberries add extra creaminess to the chia pudding. Once you've done it, you probably can't go back to the mashed version. To top that off, I slow-roasted some strawberries. They have a nice jammy tart funk which I cannot explain with words. You have to find out for yourself by trying out this recipe.

Mix until well combined.
Sit for 5 to 10 mins.
Grate frozen strawberries into a serving glass.

Chill in the fridge for at least 2 hrs to overnight.
While the chia pudding is chilling, preheat the oven to 120 degree celsius or 250 fahrenheit.
Transfer the strawberries to a large bowl.
Toss in the sugar, making sure the strawberries are well coated.
Wack into the oven and slow bake for about 2 to 2.5 hrs.
The strawberries should almost be a jammy consistency but still hold their shapes.
This is when the strawberries are releasing their juices and start to caramelize.
Transfer the roasted strawberries to the chia pudding.
Grate some more frozen strawberries.
