Ingredients
  

1 ½ cups fresh watermelon, diced (plus extra for topping)

1 cup almond milk (or any milk of choice)

¼ cup chia seeds

2 tablespoons honey or maple syrup (adjust to taste)

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Pinch of salt

Fresh mint leaves for garnish

Optional toppings: granola, coconut flakes, and additional diced watermelon

Instructions
 

In a blender, combine the diced watermelon, almond milk, honey (or maple syrup), vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt. Blend until smooth.

    In a mixing bowl, add the chia seeds and pour the watermelon mixture over them. Stir well to combine.

      Let the mixture sit for about 10 minutes, then stir again to prevent clumping of the chia seeds. Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours or overnight to allow the chia seeds to expand and create a pudding-like consistency.

        Once the chia pudding is ready, layer it in a jar or bowl, starting with a layer of watermelon chia pudding, followed by toppings such as granola, coconut flakes, and diced watermelon.

          Repeat the layers until you reach the top of the jar. Finish off with a sprig of fresh mint for an added touch of freshness.

            Serve immediately or store in the refrigerator for a quick and nutritious breakfast option.
