Strawberry Chia Seed Jam

The gelatinous nature of chia seeds makes this a supremely spreadable (not to mention nutrient dense) condiment. Try it on dark chocolate topped with coconut flakes for a satisfying snack, as a funky addition to a hummus, tomato, and lettuce sandwich, or mixed with coconut milk ice cream for a refreshing dessert. It can even be added to smoothies! I'd love to hear what you all come up with.
