WHAT YOU WILL NEED:

Let’s talk about the ingredients needed to make this delicious parfait:

• Mangoes: you need perfectly ripe ones that are succulent on their own. Incase they are a bit tart, consider adding a sweetener of choice.
• Chia seeds: They are a great source of proteins, fiber & omega 3 fatty acids.
• Greek yoghurt: This is a healthy replacement of cream. It is silky and luscious.

HOW TO MAKE MANGO CHIA PARFAIT:

The making of this mango chia parfait is an easy 3 step task yet it yields a healthy & decadent breakfast or dessert option. It can even be made the night before and enjoyed in the morning:

1. Soak the chia seeds: place the chia seeds in a container and add plain water. Mix and allow to soak for 30 minutes to overnight in the fridge.
2. Puree the mangoes: Wash your ripe mango, peel then dice. Add the mangoes to a high power blender or food processor and blend until smooth then set aside.
3. Assembling the parfait: Add a few tablespoons of the chia pudding on your serving glasses. Follow by a few tablespoons of the Greek yoghurt then the pureed mango. Repeat till the glass is full. Serve & enjoy.
