Notes

Feel free to get creative with this fruit bowl! If peaches are out of season, try apricots or even plums. Chia seeds not only add a delightful texture, but they also pack a nutritional punch with omega-3 fatty acids and fiber. If you're in the mood for something creamier, mix in some plain yogurt to the fruit before serving. Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 days, but note that the texture of the chia seeds may become softer over time. Enjoy this nutritious treat anytime!
