Ingredients
  

1 cup Greek yogurt (plain or vanilla)

2 tablespoons chia seeds

1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup (adjust sweetness to taste)

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1 cup mixed berries (strawberries, blueberries, raspberries)

1/2 cup granola (your favorite blend)

Mint leaves for garnish (optional)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Chia Seed Pudding: In a small bowl, mix the chia seeds, honey (or maple syrup), vanilla extract, and 1/2 cup of Greek yogurt. Stir well until all ingredients are combined. Add 1/2 cup of water or milk of choice to achieve a pudding-like consistency. Let it sit for at least 20-30 minutes or until the chia seeds have absorbed the liquid and the mixture has thickened.

    Prepare the Berry Layer: If using whole strawberries, chop them into smaller pieces. In a separate bowl, combine the mixed berries. If desired, you can lightly mash some of the berries with a fork to release their juices.

      Assemble the Parfait: In serving glasses or bowls, start by adding a layer of the chia pudding at the bottom. Then, add a layer of mixed berries, followed by a layer of granola. Repeat the layers until you fill the glasses, ending with a layer of berries on top.

        Final Touch: Drizzle a little extra honey or maple syrup over the top if desired, and garnish with fresh mint leaves for a pop of color and freshness.

          Serve and Enjoy: Your Berry Chia Yogurt Parfait is ready to be enjoyed! Serve immediately for a delightful breakfast or snack.
