Mindy: Baking it into your food is the best way to sneak it into your family's food if they are picky. Luckily my family likes it....they will eat it on anything now. If you do an internet search, you will find many receipes that use flax seed.
For all....make sure you grind up the flax seed first. That is the only way you get the nutrients.
BIG BAD WOLF: Yep! My baby's bithday cake was made with flax seed, applesauce, pineapple, and carrots....very, very tasty! Of course, the icing was mostly sugar and that is what she ate! The rest of us ate the yummy cake!
Flax Seed! I put it in everyting! Grind it up and put it on salads, sprinkle over any meat, put in scrambled eggs, cook in muffins, pancakes, etc! (Also excellent for babies over 8 months! I put it in her baby food!)
Extremely healthy and it tastes good! "Flaxseed is more than just nutritious -- health experts believe the seed can actually help prevent heart disease and many types of cancer."
