The best recipe for Strawberry Chia Seed Jam

I’m a huge fan of old fashioned strawberry jam. However, i’m not a fan of how much sugar it contains! I remember making jam with my mom as a kid and using cups of sugar! Not to mention all the time spent cooking the fruit until the correct temperature and sterilizing jars!
This recipe is SO much more simple and uses SO much less sugar! It is also considered raw because the fruit doesn’t have to be cooked!
And, it contains CHIA SEEDS!
(if you’ve been reading the blog you know I have a love affair with chia seeds!)
