fridge jam...

i love strawberry jam and i found this really easy recipe using chia seeds as the binder in place of pectin.

ingredients:

2 cups strawberries
2 T raw honey
2  T chia seeds

how to:

put all ingredients in blender until desired consistency, and put in mason jar in fridge (this recipe was enough for 2 small mason jars).  the chia seeds will gel which will cause the fruit puree to thicken into jam.


this jam is not quite as thick as i am used to, but it is still thick enough for toast, and would be good swirled into some greek yogurt.  i had it on top of my pancakes this morning with some chocolate chips for a very special treat.
