# How to Make It:

01 - In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together chia seeds, almond milk, maple syrup, and vanilla extract until well combined. Allow mixture to rest for 10 minutes, then whisk again to prevent clumping. Cover bowl and refrigerate for minimum 4 hours or overnight until pudding reaches desired thickness.
02 - Place fresh strawberries, lemon juice, and maple syrup into blender. Blend on high speed until smooth and uniform consistency is achieved. Transfer puree to container and refrigerate until assembly.
03 - In a small bowl, combine coconut yogurt, matcha green tea powder, and maple syrup. Whisk thoroughly until smooth with even green coloration throughout, ensuring no matcha powder lumps remain.
04 - Distribute chia pudding evenly as base layer in each of four serving jars, approximately 1/4 inch thickness. Layer strawberry puree on top, followed by matcha yogurt layer. Repeat layering sequence if desired for additional depth.
05 - Top each jar with sliced fresh strawberries, toasted coconut flakes, or granola as preferred. Serve immediately while chilled, or cover and refrigerate until ready to consume.
