This breakfast jar layers all the good stuff – a coconut chia pudding, acai smoothie, and granola! Acai is an Amazonian superfood that has benefits like reducing cholesterol levels, fighting the free radicals that damage our immune system, and improving skin health. If you don’t have any acai powder on hand, you can still enjoy the smoothie component by simply omitting it from the recipe!
Prep Time: 10-15 minutes

Ingredients
Chia pudding
¼ cup chia seeds
1 cup non-dairy milk
½ tsp vanilla extract
1 tbsp desiccated coconut
Acai smoothie
1 tbsp acai powder
1 frozen banana
1/3 cup coconut water
½ cup frozen mixed berries
½ cup of your favourite granola/muesli
Steps
- Mix all chia ingredients together and leave to set for 20 mins minimum. You can also use half hot water, half non-dairy milk to make the setting time faster.

3. Layer the chia pudding, smoothie, and granola in a jar. Serve and enjoy!
