Serves – 2 portions

ingredients

Raspberry Chia pudding

140ml milk of choice
2 large handfuls of raspberries (fresh or frozen)
Couple of drops of vanilla essence (optional)
2 tsp maple syrup (or honey)
3.5 tbsp chia seeds

Parfait layers

2 kiwis
Approx 6 tbsp Greek yoghurt

Optional additional toppings
1 kiwi sliced (with skin)
Raspberries
2-4 tsp mixed seeds

Method: 

1. Raspberry chia pudding
Blend milk, raspberries, vanilla essence and maple syrup. Stir in chia seeds and refrigerate in an air tight container for approx. 2 hours (or you can prep and leave overnight).

2. Kiwi
Either chop kiwi into small chunks or blend (without the skin) into a puree, straining any excess liquid.

3. Parfait
Layer Greek yoghurt, raspberry chia pudding, and kiwi. Top with sliced kiwi (leaving the skin on for extra fibre), raspberries and mixed seeds.

Gut fact:  Did you know kiwi fruit is good for inducing a spontaneous complete evacuation (bowel movement)? They have a high water holding capacity and viscosity that helps bulk your stool, plus they contain a probiotic enzyme called actinidin which can help stimulate receptors in the colon to get things moving.
