I am having a break with workshops until the new year.  If you would like me to host a nutrition workshop at your workplace or community group on the Central Coast, or virtually, please get in touch on 0413 77 44 11 or dietitians@brightdiets.com.au

Festive Watermelon Pizza

Inspired by my kid, this is definately a texture and flavour sensation! Serve outside as it is sure to get messy!

Serves 6-8

Ingredients

• 1 whole or half watermelon sliced 1.5cm thick to be the watermelon base
• fruit of choice: I chose:
  • 1/2 a firm pear to avid oxidisation
  • 1/2 banana that have been refridgerated to prevent oxidisation
  • 1 mango cheek
  • 2 Tb berries, I used dianella berries (Australian Native- be careful you know your berries!)
• 3 table spoons of Greek yoghurt or chia pudding made on dairy free milk for a dairy free option and extra texture
• 1 teaspoon desecated coconut
• mint leaves 

Method

1. Wash your watermelon skin
2. Cut the watermelon into round circles and place on a plate
3. Cut up the rest of the fruit
4. Drizzle or dollop the yoghurt onto the watermelon
5. Add the fruit
6. Sprinkle with coconut and garnish with mint leaves.
7. Cut up into slices and serve.
