Mixed Berry & Chia Seed Compote
Quick and easy, this makes a deliciously healthy compote to add to your smoothies, breakfast bowls, morning porridge or yoghurt. Reduce it down a bit further and you can even use it as a jam. Chia seeds are fantastic gelling agents and do the job of what sugar would normally do in thickening a low sugar type “jam”. You can use any selection of berries, I like to use a bit of everything sometimes!
