Ingredients
  

1 cup coconut milk (or any plant-based milk)

1/4 cup chia seeds

2 tablespoons honey or maple syrup (adjust based on sweetness preference)

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

A pinch of salt

1 cup mixed fresh fruits (such as mango, kiwi, strawberries, and blueberries)

Toasted coconut flakes (for garnish)

Fresh mint leaves (for garnish)

Instructions
 

Mix the Base: In a medium bowl, whisk together the coconut milk, chia seeds, honey (or maple syrup), vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt until well combined.

    Set it Up: Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or ideally overnight. This allows the chia seeds to absorb the liquid and create a thick pudding-like texture.

      Prepare the Fruit: While the chia pudding is setting, wash and chop your fresh fruits into bite-sized pieces. You can also mix and match according to your preferences or what's in season.

        Assemble the Pudding: Once the pudding has thickened, give it a good stir. Divide the chia pudding into serving bowls or jars.

          Top it Off: Layer your mixed fruits generously on top of the pudding in each bowl. Sprinkle with toasted coconut flakes for an added crunch and garnish with fresh mint leaves for a pop of color and flavor.

            Serve and Enjoy: Serve immediately or store in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. This dish is great for breakfast, a mid-day snack, or a light dessert.
