PB & Strawberry Chia Seed Jam Oatmeal

One of my favorite foods is peanut butter! I eat it everyday with a spoon or on top of other foods like this delicious oatmeal! This oatmeal reminds me of my grade school days when my mom would make me PB&J sandwiches. I got a little creative this morning and made my first chia seed jam. It was delicious and I will definitely be making it again! It was was so nice to have my "peanut butter jam time" this morning!
