Notes

Feel free to switch up the fruits based on what you have on hand—berries, bananas, or even citrus fruits can create delightful variations!
If you're looking to boost the protein content, you could mix in a dollop of Greek yogurt.
This fruit bowl is best enjoyed fresh but can be stored in the refrigerator for up to a day if you leave out the chia seeds until ready to serve for the best texture.
Enjoy your healthy, fruity snack!
