Keto - Raspberry Chia seed Jam

Hello everyone, something a little bit different for you today. Im sharing a recipe I found for Raspberry Chia seed Jam. 
 
Like every year I have made the decision to get healthy, but after a month or so I give up and go back to my old ways.
This year I have started a new journey to change my lifestyle habits. I'm trying the Keto lifestyle.
Keep reading after the recipe to find out the basics of a Keto 'Diet'

Raspberry Chia Seed Jam
 
 
Ingredients:
3 cups of Raspberries (frozen or fresh) I used frozen
Juice of 1 lemon - I used about 1.5 tablespoons of liquid lemon juice from Aldi
2 Tablespoons of natural Sweetener - I have used Raw Earth brand Stevia & Monk Fruit Sweetener
3.5 Tablespoons of Chia Seeds
 
 
 
1. Place raspberries and lemon juice into a large saucepan over a medium heat until soft.
 
2.  Mash them up and add sweetener.
 
3. Stir in Chia seeds and let cool. 
Pretty simple and SUPER tasty.

Before I go any further...
I am NO EXPERT or DOCTOR so if you want to try this lifestyle, please check with your doctor!!!

So what is Keto?
"The keto diet changes the way your body converts food into energy. Eating a lot of fat and very few carbs puts you in ketosis, a metabolic state where your body burns fat instead of carbs for fuel. When your body is unable to get glucose from carbs, your liver converts fatty acids from your diet into ketones, an alternative source of energy. Burning ketones in place of glucose reduces inflammation and spurs weight loss." (taken from Keto Diet for beginners)
 
Thanks for stopping by, I am hoping to share a few recipes every week ass well as my other creative little projects.
