This layered breakfast jar has a layer of overnight oats, chia seed pudding and yummy berry smoothie.

Ingredients

• ½ cup almond milk (for oats)
• 1 cup almond milk (for chia pudding)
• 1 cup almond milk (for smoothie)
• 1 banana
• vanilla extract
  
• 3 table spoons of chia seeds
• ½ cup raw rolled oats
• ½ cup fresh raspberries
• 3 strawberries
• 1 kiwifruit
• extra fruit for topping (e.g blackberries, blueberries, raspberries)
• raw cacao nibs (optional)
• desiccated coconut (optional)
• a dollop or two of organic yogurt (or vegan coyo yoghurt)

Method:

Mix one cup of almond milk with 3 tablespoons of chia seeds in a small bowl. Add vanilla extract to taste (about 1 teaspoon for me) and a little yogurt or coyo if you like a thicker pudding. Cover and place in your fridge. Next mix half a cup of almond milk with your rolled oats. Again add your vanilla as desired (you can add sweetener if you feel the need), cover and place in the fridge. Leave both overnight to set.

In the morning place your banana, raspberries, almond milk, two of your strawberries and a dash of vanilla into your blender. If using, also add your yogurt or vegan coyo! Blend together. Get your fruit ready, peel your kiwifruit and slice your strawberry.
Fetch your oats and chia pudding from the fridge. Pour your oats at the bottom of your jar or bowl (whatever you like) and then your chia seed pudding. Layer your kiwi and strawberry slices along the edges of your jar/ bowl. Pour in your fresh berry smoothie. Now the easiest part, add your toppings!
Just add whatever berries or other fruits you like on top. Sprinkle on your cacao nibs and coconut and you're done!
Now you are ready to devour your beautiful, healthy breakfast jar! Don't be afraid to play around with ingredients, there is so much you can do. Try exotic fruits, nuts, cocoa oats... whatever you want, just have fun. Hope you try this out sometime, its reeeally good.
