I like both of these but I avoid them because of the carbs.
Ran across something else that LOOKED really good but I have to investigate the carbs in that coconut milk. Put about 3 tablespoons of flax seed into a smallish jelly jar then fill almost all the way with a half a can of coconut milk. Shake vigorously for a couple minutes and do not refrigerate. They said to just drop the jar in your bag and by the time you get to work, breakfast is done. It looks sort of like tapioca. It gets thick because the seeds swell and you release thickening agents in the seed coatings when you shake it.

that would work with chia seeds, too. I'd start with a smaller amount to start, though, and work up.
