Ingredients
For the Chia Pudding:

For the Kiwi Fruit Smoothie:
- 1/4 ripe avocado, stone removed
- 1 ripe green kiwi fruit
- 1 frozen banana
- 1 handful of kale or spinach, stems removed (organic if possible)
- 125 ml (1/2 cup) coconut water (or coconut milk)
- juice of 1/2 lime
To Serve:
- Ripe Green Kiwi fruit, finely sliced and chopped
- Nut Butter
- Fresh Blueberries
- Coconut & Buckwheat Granola, or granola of choice
- Desiccated Coconut

Method:
- Add the avocado and kiwi fruit flesh to a blender along with the rest of the kiwi fruit smoothie ingredients.
- Blend on a high speed until completely smooth.
- Spoon half of the chia pudding into the base of two medium-sized glasses. For a beautiful artistic look, you don’t need to worry about making the layers even.
- Arrange a few kiwi fruit slices around the inside of the glasses. Cover with half of the kiwi fruit smoothie, the rest of the chia pudding and a dollop of nut butter. Top with the rest of the kiwi fruit smoothie and finish with another dollop of nut butter, as well as some chopped kiwi fruit and blueberries and a sprinkle of granola, coconut and lemon balm.
