Combine plant-based milk, chia seeds, cocoa powder, maple syrup and vanilla in a mixing bowl, stirring well with an electric mixer. Transfer the pudding to an airtight container and refrigerator at least 8 hours (or overnight).
Remove from refrigerator and spoon 1/4 cup of pudding into 4 serving dishes or jars. Layer each dish with 1/4 cup strawberries. Spoon a final layer of 1/4 cup pudding onto each serving dish. Garnish with remaining strawberries. Serve immediately.

For meal prep, follow step 1, but instead of transferring pudding to an airtight container, follow the instructions in step 2, portioning the pudding and strawberry layers in 4 Weck or Mason jars with tight fitting lids. Refrigerate for several hours to allow to thicken.
