Rich in fiber and Omega–3’s, flax seed has been renowned for its myriad of health benefits since ancient times. In fact, the early Greeks and Romans snacked on a handful or two of flaxseeds. Add flaxseed meal to your hot or cold cereal, pancakes, and waffles for a robust nutty flavor, and save the raw whole seeds for when you want to add a little crunch. Try using ground flax seed instead of eggs in baking and cooking. Simply add 1 tablespoon ground flax seed with 3 tablespoons warm water, let sit until a gel forms and use for 1 egg in recipe (pancakes, quick breads).
