Okay, so I’m a bit passionate about this seasonal combo. With this jam around though, it’s easy to understand why. First of all, and most importantly, it tastes like sweet spring on toast. The tangy mixture is an absolute dream on top of toast in the morning while you listen to the birds chirp and forget about the horrors of shoveling snow out of your driveway.

On top of that, it’s a great source of vitamins and minerals. If you’re a health nut, this jam will be your jam. Refined sugar free, this vegan condiment is sweetened with a touch of maple syrup. The flavors from the combo of sweet strawberries and tart rhubarb shine. The chia seeds also help give this jam a nutrient boost. These little seeds not only thicken it, but also provide satiating fiber and protein. Both are important to helping you avoid a sugar crash five minutes after breakfast.


Plus, this jam could not be easier to make. Taking just 4 ingredients and 15 minutes of hands on time, you’ll have a delicious addition to your weekly meal prep in no time. Use this jam on toast, to top oatmeal and smoothie bowls with, or just eat by the spoonful. Every bite of this delightful Strawberry Rhubarb Chia Seed Jam will remind you that spring is here!
