Breakfast Delight: ‘Fuji Mountain and Sakura’



What you need:

1. Watermelon, raspberries and blueberries
2. A slice of multigrain bread and pretzels sticks
3. Cream cheese
4. Yogurt, cottage or ricotta cheese
5. Granola or cereal, chia seeds
6. Cookie cutters 



How to: Arrange all ingredients in layers: cut watermelon into small pieces and put them at the bottom of the booted cup. Spoon yogurt on the top of the watermelon then, add granola or cereal. Add a handful of blueberries. Put a spoonful of cottage or ricotta cheese. Finish up with a few spoons of yogurt. Place ‘Sakura flowers’ on the top, position 2-3 pretzel sticks in between the ‘blossoms’. 
For the ‘Mountain Fuji’: cut bread across making a triangle. Spread it with a cream cheese, sprinkle with chia seeds if desire, add blueberries. 

 A touch: cut out extra ‘Sakura blossoms’ with cookie cutter. Arrange pieces on the plate with your artistic touch.



Chia is an edible seed grown in Mexico dating back to Mayan and Aztec times. "Chia" means strength, and is considered a good energy booster. It contains healthy omega-3 fatty acids, carbohydrates, protein, calcium,fiber and antioxidants.
