PREPARATION
- Scoop Greek Yoghurt: Begin by placing the plain Greek yoghurt into a clean glass jar, bowl or small container. The yoghurt forms the creamy base of the Creamy Chia And Greek Yoghurt Berry Delight.
- Add Chia Seeds: Evenly sprinkle chia seeds over the yoghurt. These tiny seeds are rich in fibre and omega-3 fatty acids and will thicken slightly as they rest, adding a satisfying texture to the Creamy Chia And Greek Yoghurt Berry Delight.
- Sweeten If Desired: Drizzle a small amount of maple syrup over the mixture to add natural sweetness. This step is optional but enhances flavour and balances the tartness of the yoghurt.
- Top With Fresh Berries: Place a few fresh berries such as blueberries, raspberries or chopped strawberries on top. The berries add colour, antioxidants and a refreshing taste to the Creamy Chia And Greek Yoghurt Berry Delight.
- Serve Or Store For Later: Enjoy immediately for a crunchy chia texture or cover and keep it in a cool place until ready to eat. Allowing the mixture to sit for ten to fifteen minutes softens the chia seeds and creates a creamier consistency.

TIPS
These tips can help you make a better Creamy Chia And Greek Yoghurt Berry Delight:
- Soften Chia: Let sit for 10 to 15 minutes if you prefer a pudding-like consistency.
- Use Fresh Berries: Blueberries, raspberries or chopped strawberries work best.
- Layer For Appeal: Layer yoghurt, chia and berries in a clear jar for visual presentation.
VARIATIONS
- Add Crunch: Top with crushed almonds, granola or sunflower seeds.

PREPPING AND STORAGE
