Answer 1

Using the seed either raw or toasted: Sprinkle over cottage cheese, ricotta, yogurt, breakfast cereal, put in shakes (thickens them somewhat). They can also be cooked in any hot cereal.

Using flaxseed meal it can be cooked into other foods, such as meatloaf, meatballs, or casseroles. In baked goods, add a few tablespoons to any recipe.

1/2 C boiling water
2 T peanut butter
1/4 t cinnamon

Pour boiling water over flax seed meal and stir well. Stir in peanut butter and cinnamon. Let thicken for 1-2 minutes

Answer 2

I have the same question! I've got a bag of whole seeds but recipes only call for ground meal. What I have been doing is sprinkling them on homeade low-carb muffins, yogurt, puddings etc. But I think it is true that grinding them is more nutritious. If you have, or can borrow, a coffee grinder you can easily grind them into meal for recipes.

Answer 3

The only problem with using whole flax seed intsead of the meal, is that the shiny black seeds won't get digested, and then why eat them?

but, ground, you can sprinkle them on almost anything....for example, they are an exellent salad topping.
