Rhubarb Chia Jam

Jam gets a bad reputation because of its high sugar content. In truth, the best jams highlight the fruit and forgo the sugar. With only a bit of honey for sweetness, this jam is incredible—plus, it’s rich in omegas thanks to the chia seeds.

Directions

1. Cook rhubarb and honey in a large, heavy bottom pot on medium heat until it begins to simmer. Then reduce the heat to low and cook another 5 minutes. 

2. Add strawberries, cinnamon and lemon juice. Cook for another 10 minutes until soft.

3. Use an immersion blender to make a smooth consistency. 

4. Turn off the heat and add chia seeds. Let sit for 10 minutes stirring occasionally. 

5. Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 7 days. 

TIPS
