Yay – I have a fresh-off-the-press cooking show episode to share. I’ve been making this super cool jam recipe made from acai berries and chia seeds for a while now at home, and I wanted to demonstrate just how easy it is to make it yourself. For anyone who’s looking to make small changes for a healthy gain (because those small changes really DO add up!) this recipe is really a perfect fit. And, oh my gosh: SO so so easy.
You can view this episode along with my other videos under the Cooking Show section, HERE.
With its stellar ingredient list, this jam is a bona fide superfood in and of itself, so you can feel really good about incorporating it in your diet. Acai berries have a very mild berry flavor, resulting in a jam that looks and tastes similar to boysenberry preserves. If you like extra-sweet jams, I would recommend adding a touch of white stevia at the end for a natural (and sugar-free/calorie-free) sweet boost.

I have not yet used acai berries or chia seeds in my cooking. They are filled with so many good for you properties….thanks for the insight and inspiration. I too will use stevia to sweeten my jam, if needed.
