This combination is my new favorite summertime breakfast. I love having the granola and chia pudding already made up so that I can just layer everything together within a few minutes and it’s ready to eat. If they’re not already prepared, allow an hour total to have the pudding chilled and the granola cooked and cooled. The Tropical Granola recipe makes about 3x as much as you need for these 5 servings, so you will have plenty leftover for other breakfasts or snacks. Or add more to your chia puddings, no judgement here.

1 mango, chopped

½ lime, cut into 5 wedges

Instructions
-
Choose either a shallow bowl for a breakfast bowl or a tall bowl or short glass for a parfait.
-
Starting with chia pudding, add a couple tablespoons to the bowl. Top the chia pudding with the jam.
-
For the remaining ingredients, either stack them in a tall bowl or glass for a parfait or place them in a circle in a shallow bowl. Sprinkle with the dragon fruit powder last.
-
Eat immediately. If prepping for the week, the granola is best added just prior to consuming.
