Ingredients
  

1 cup fresh raspberries (and a few extra for garnish)

1 cup coconut milk (or almond milk)

1/4 cup chia seeds

2 tablespoons honey or maple syrup (adjust for sweetness)

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1/2 cup Greek yogurt (or dairy-free yogurt)

1/2 cup granola (your choice)

Mint leaves for garnish (optional)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Chia Pudding: In a mixing bowl, combine the coconut milk, chia seeds, honey or maple syrup, and vanilla extract. Whisk thoroughly until well combined.

    Let it Bloom: Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight. This allows the chia seeds to absorb the liquid and create a pudding-like consistency.

      Mash the Raspberries: In a separate bowl, gently mash half of the raspberries with a fork. Leave the rest whole for garnishing. You can sweeten this mixture with a little honey if desired.

        Assemble the Parfaits: In serving glasses or bowls, layer the chia pudding, followed by Greek yogurt, then the mashed raspberry mixture. Repeat the layers until your glasses are filled, finishing with a layer of remaining whole raspberries.

          Top with Granola: Sprinkle granola on top of the parfaits for added crunch. Optionally, garnish with fresh mint leaves for a pop of color.

            Serve and Enjoy: Chill for about 15 minutes before serving to allow the flavors to meld together or serve immediately.
