If you have trouble making time for a healthy breakfast in the morning, overnight breakfast-in-a-jar recipes might be the answer. They’re easy to make and great on-the-go.

This particular recipe comes from The Kitchn. It’s creamy, nutty, and filling — with just the right amount of sweet and spice, thanks to the maple syrup and cardamom. The flavor is delicious and, because the ingredients are blended together, it has a rich, smooth texture.

Why You Should Eat Chia Seeds

Native to Southern Mexico, chia seeds were the food ration of choice for Aztec soldiers.[1] These warriors are said to have sustained themselves during battle with just a tablespoon per day.[2] Today, chia seeds are considered a functional food,[3] meaning they offer a great number of health benefits with relatively few calories. They’re a great substitute for traditional carb-loading. Endurance athletes can actually “chia seed load” before a big event.[4]

Chia seeds are known for being a great source of omega-3s, protein, and fiber,[5] but they offer much more, especially considering their tiny size. They’re a great source of protein, minerals, and antioxidants. Chia seeds are an excellent source of calcium, phosphorous, magnesium, manganese, potassium, and iron.[6] In fact, one ounce of chia seeds has 2.4 times more iron than an ounce of beef liver.[7]
