Instructions
Prepare the Pudding:
- In a mixing bowl, whisk together the chia seeds and your choice of grass-fed whole fat dairy milk or full-fat coconut milk.
- Divide the chia seeds and milk or coconut milk mixture into five portions to create different colors.
- Mix each portion with a different natural coloring agent: matcha powder for green, blue spirulina for blue, acai berry powder for purple, and mango puree for orange. Leave one plain.
- Whisk each batch separately and refrigerate overnight to set.
Layer the Parfait:
- Once the chia puddings have set, take the jars and begin layering the different colors to create a vibrant effect. Start with one color and gently add the next layer, taking care not to mix the colors.
Add the Toppings:
- Top each jar with a variety of garnishes such as edible flowers, fresh berries, granola, sliced mango, freeze-dried dragon fruit, chocolate shavings, and shaved coconut. Arrange them artistically for visual appeal.
Chill and Serve:
- Chill the parfaits in the refrigerator until ready to serve.
- Present the parfaits as a delightful and nutritious breakfast or snack option, perfect for a spa-like, health-conscious setting.
Serving Suggestion:
- Serve the parfaits with a small spoon, and encourage guests to delve deep into the jar to experience all the flavors and colors in each bite.
