Cherry Chia Jam: In a small saucepan, combine cherries and honey over medium heat. Cook until cherries soften and release juices, about 5-7 minutes. Remove from heat, stir in chia seeds and vanilla extract, stand and cool to room temperature. Transfer jam to an air-tight container and refrigerate until needed.
