Today's consumers are looking for flavor, nutrition and value in the foods they eat. Most consumers believe that eating healthfully can greatly or somewhat reduce the risk of disease. Flaxseed fits this profile perfectly because of its pleasant nutty taste and nutritional attributes. Consumers who want to add the health benefits of flaxseed to their diet can do any of the following:

1. Buy or bake products that have whole or ground flaxseed included in the recipes
2. Use whole or ground flaxseed as a topping on cereal, yogurt, and/or salads
3. Use omega-3 eggs from hens fed rations containing flaxseed

Cooking Tips
Flaxseed and Baking
Add flaxseed to your baking for a pleasant nutty taste, and more. Attractive flaxseed adds flavor, extra texture and good nutrition to your breads and other baked goods. You can add it to your home baked products in its whole seed or milled form.
Whole Flaxseed
â Add a scoopful of flaxseed to bread doughs and pancake, muffin or cookie mixes. When sprinkled on top of any of these before baking, the seeds add crunch, taste and eye appeal.

Milled Flaxseed
â Mill a desired amount of flaxseed to a granular, free-flowing meal in a coffee bean grinder. Added to your baked goods, the milled flaxseed enhances the flavor, appearance and food value of the finished product.

and that is all i found out about flax seed. Now you know .

I use hulled flaxseed and put it in my smoothies. I also like it sprinkled on top of cottage cheese with some pepper, chives, onion powder and whatever else strikes me. <smile>

oatmeal is a great idea.... I haven't done that yet.

i have to admit i have never knowingly eaten flax seed I will have to try it. i guess you find it in the ceral area near the oat meal and oat bran and wheat germ I will go look. maybe it would be good in granola mixture

Well i just got back from the store I bout flax seeds well i thought i bought flax seed but i bought ground flax seed, not what i wanted. darn it all. I am going to make some granola bars or at least i am going to try so i will use the ground flax seed in it along with oat bran , rolled oats . wheat germ, peanuts , pecans and walnuts,, maybe coconut , raisins , peanut butter and honey . this will be the first time for me to make granola. I have two recipes and i am going to sort of mix them together and fly by the seat of my pants. i will have to shell the peanuts. for got to buy a jar of roasted unsalted peanuts . But i have three sacks of in the shell roasted peanuts It will give Larry something to do if i can keep him from eating them

Mamob, you should use GROUND flax seed, because the unground seeds just get eliminated from the body without the nutrients being utilized.

I just bought my first bag of it from Trader Joe's yesterday. Haven't used it yet.

I HEAR IT SHOULD BE GROUNDED, THE SEEDS ARE NO GOOD TO YOUR BODY IF NOT GROUNDED UP....THATS WHAT..THEY SAY...GOOD FOR YOU...IM GOING OUT TODAY TO BUY SOME, MAKES GREAT MUFFINS TOO..

I've put ground flax-seed in meatloaf with breadcrumbs or without.
mixed with breadcrumbs or flour and put on fish before sauteing

Yum, I like the meatloaf idea, and the fish, too!

I forgot to say, I've been putting it in yogurt. Adds fiber to a fiber-less food.

i like it in foods, that you cant tell its in...WE'RE SNEAKY ARENT WE!

Yes I am very sneaky.
