Notes

The vanilla chia pudding can be kept for 5 days in an air-tight container in the fridge. You can also make the puréed kiwi ahead and keep in a separate container in the fridge. Once the chia parfait is assembled, then it is best to enjoy right away.
You can garnish or layer with more ingredients, such as nuts, yogurt, banana, strawberries, granola, etc. Check out the blog post for more ideas!
