Ingredients

1 cup fresh watermelon, cubed

1 cup coconut milk (or almond milk)

1/4 cup chia seeds

1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup (optional, adjust for sweetness)

1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

Pinch of salt

Fresh mint leaves for garnish

Toppings: sliced kiwi, blueberries, and shredded coconut (optional)

Instructions

Blend the Watermelon: In a blender, puree the cubed watermelon until smooth. You should have about 1 cup of watermelon juice.

Mix the Base: In a mixing bowl, combine the watermelon juice, coconut milk, chia seeds, honey or maple syrup (if using), vanilla extract, and pinch of salt. Stir until well combined.

Chill: Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or transfer the mixture into jars and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight. This will allow the chia seeds to swell and thicken the pudding.

Layer the Jars: Once the chia pudding is set, take your jars and start by adding a layer of the pudding. Follow with a layer of your choice of fruit toppings, such as sliced kiwi and blueberries. Repeat the layers until the jars are filled to the top.

Garnish: Finish with a sprinkle of shredded coconut and a few fresh mint leaves on top for added freshness and color.

Serve: Enjoy your Refreshing Watermelon Chia Pudding Breakfast Jar chilled as a nutritious breakfast or a delightful snack!
