1 tablespoon maple syrup

8 walnuts broken into small pieces

Preparation:

1. Mix together the filling ingredients. Leave in the fridge for about 15 minutes so that the chia seeds can gel up.
2. Whilst the chia seeds are expanding cut the melon into 2 halves, scoop out the seeds from the centre of each half but keep the flesh.
