- ½ cup Greek yogurt or vanilla yogurt
- 1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup
- ½ teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions
- Slice a large round piece of watermelon about 1–1½ inches thick and place it flat on a cutting board or serving plate.
- Gently pat the watermelon slice with a paper towel to remove excess moisture.
- In a small bowl, mix Greek yogurt, honey (or maple syrup), and vanilla extract until smooth.
- Spread the yogurt mixture evenly across the top of the watermelon slice, leaving a small border around the edge like a pizza crust.
- Add fresh fruit toppings across the yogurt layer in a colorful pattern.
- Sprinkle optional toppings such as granola, coconut flakes, or chia seeds for extra texture.
- Use a sharp knife to slice the watermelon into pizza-style wedges.
- Serve immediately for the freshest flavor and texture.
Notes
- Use a thick watermelon slice so it can hold the toppings without breaking.
- Dry the watermelon surface to help the yogurt layer stick better.
- Avoid adding too many toppings so the slices stay easy to pick up.
- For a dairy-free version, substitute coconut yogurt or almond yogurt.
