Ingredients
Instructions

Slice the Watermelon:

- 2
Prepare the Yogurt:
- Pour the coconut yogurt (or Greek yogurt) into three separate cups.
- This is where you'll create the vibrant colors for your watermelon pizza.

Add the Natural Colors:
- In the first cup of yogurt, add the organic pink dragon fruit powder and stir until the yogurt takes on a pink hue.
- In the second cup, mix in the organic blue spirulina powder, creating a blue color.
- For the third cup, add the organic purple pea butterfly powder, creating a purple yogurt.
- 4
Assemble the Pizza:
- Take your watermelon slices and place them on a clean serving platter or individual plates.
- Spread the colorful yogurt evenly on top of each watermelon slice. You can use separate spoons for each color to prevent blending.
- The result should be a visually appealing "unicorn" of yogurt on your watermelon "pizza" slices.

Add the Toppings:
- Scatter the blueberries, blackberries, raspberries, red currant, and fresh mint leaves on top of the yogurt-covered watermelon slices.
- Sprinkle the puffed quinoa over the fruits to add a delightful crunch and extra nutrition.

Sweeten (Optional):
- If you prefer your watermelon pizza a bit sweeter, you can drizzle it with a small amount of maple syrup, honey, or agave syrup. Be mindful of the amount you use to control the sweetness level.

Yogurt Options: You can use either coconut yogurt or Greek yogurt. Choose based on your dietary preferences or what's available.
-
Natural Coloring: The pink dragon fruit, blue spirulina, and purple pea butterfly powders are used to naturally color the yogurt. Adjust the quantity based on your desired level of color intensity.
-
Topping Variations: Feel free to get creative with your toppings. You can use a variety of fresh fruits, nuts, seeds, or even a drizzle of nut butter for added flavor and texture.
-
Optional Sweetener: The choice to add maple syrup, honey, or agave syrup is entirely optional. Taste your pizza first to determine if it needs additional sweetness.
