Grind up and sprinkle on flaxseed

Ok, this 'bit is gaining some popularity but it still deserves more attention! Ground flax has a subtle, nutty flavor. It offers a natural abundance of omega-3 fatty acids and is loaded with healthy fiber. What many may not know is that the body can absorb the nutritional goodness of flax best if the seeds are ground. Ground flax is so easy to incorporate into your daily intake: sprinkle on salads, in smoothies, mix into meat...you get the idea. Mixing ground flaxseeds into meals and baking is also a great way to 'sneak' in nutrition for kids.
