My personal favorite is blackberry vanilla jam with chia seeds. It's smooth, it's sweet and it's absolutely amazing on cinnamon swirl bagels and fresh biscuits straight out of the oven. You can even add apples to create your very own apple and blackberry jam - the options are truly limitless!
If I'm in a festive mood or hosting a Hispanic brunch - this strawberry lime and chia seed jelly is delicious. I like to make traditional breakfast tacos with eggs, meat and cheese, but the crowd favorite is whole grain tortillas loaded with bananas, fresh berries, this homemade jam and a layer of whipped cream for a sweet summer burrito.
