Traditional fruit jam is made with insane amounts of sugar, while this chia seed jam recipe uses very little.

Nuts are a good source of fibre, protein and healthy fats, as well as an excellent source of vitamin E, manganese and magnesium. How to Soak & Toast the nuts Soaking and activating nuts is very easy to do at...
