- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon lemon juice

Notes
Stir the chia mixture after 10 minutes of soaking to prevent clumps. Adjust thickness by adding more chia seeds or almond milk as needed. Use fresh ripe strawberries for best flavor. Can substitute oat or coconut milk. For vegan version, replace honey with maple syrup or agave nectar.
