Ingredients
  

Fruit Base
  • 1 medium Honeydew Melon Chilled and cubed
  • 1 cup Blueberries Fresh or frozen
  • 1 cup Strawberries Sliced
Fiber & Toppings
  • 2 tbsp Chia Seeds
  • 1 tbsp Ground Flaxseed
  • 2 tbsp Pumpkin Seeds (Pepitas) Toasted lightly
  • 1 tsp Lime Zest Freshly grated
  • 1 tbsp Honey or Maple Syrup Optional, for extra sweetness

Method
 

Instructions
  1. Prepare the fruit: Peel, deseed, and chop the honeydew melon into bite-sized cubes. Hull and slice the strawberries.
  2. Combine the base fruits: In a large mixing bowl, gently combine the cubed honeydew, blueberries, and sliced strawberries.
  3. Incorporate the fiber: Sprinkle the chia seeds and ground flaxseed evenly over the fruit mixture. If using, drizzle with honey or maple syrup.
  4. Gently toss the ingredients together until the seeds are distributed throughout the fruit. Allow the mixture to sit for 5 minutes so the chia seeds begin to absorb moisture.
  5. Divide the mixture: Evenly portion the fruit bowl mixture into two serving bowls.
  6. Finish and serve: Top each bowl immediately with the toasted pumpkin seeds and a sprinkle of fresh lime zest for brightness.

Notes

For a creamier texture, you can substitute half the honeydew with cantaloupe. For best results, use fresh fruit, but frozen berries can be used if thawed slightly before mixing.
