I’ve been moving into chia seeds. One cause for my infatuation is that I discovered them at Aldi for $3. They’re unbelievable nutritious – excessive in manganese, omega-3 fatty acids, fiber, protein, and so on.

Why not pair them with blueberries? Chia seeds don’t style like something to me in order that they make a superb addition to jam however you should use no-sugar pectin as nicely see: low sugar blueberry jam recipe.

Blueberries are taking place proper now. My household went berry selecting and managed to choose actually one million blueberries (or some large quantity).

Here’s a blueberry department from my native blueberry farm:

I made blueberry skillet cake after which determined to make fridge blueberry jam. My freezer is now filled with the remainder of the blueberries as they freeze very well.

This recipe is ridiculously simple in a blender and then you definitely merely retailer for 90 minutes within the fridge and it turns magically right into a thick fruit unfold.

There is no such thing as a have to can it (who desires to can in a sizzling kitchen) as a result of it is going to preserve within the fridge for every week or so and you’ll take pleasure in it instantly. I discovered it to be a revelation that it isn’t essential to seal jam for secure retaining.

Put this blueberry fridge jaim in your yogurt, in your toast, or simply eat it as a deal with! Yum!
