Looking for a rich source of plant-based omega-3 fats? Flax seeds are what you need. With 1.3 grams of protein, two grams of carbohydrates, two grams of fiber, and 37 calories in just one tablespoon, flax seeds are one of the most essential additions to your diet. Get off the horns of the dilemma and add flax seeds to your daily diet now. 

  1. Smoothies
    Smoothies are the perfect breakfast option if you are a health freak. Add a tablespoon of flax seeds to your smoothie while blending to give it a nutty taste and pack it with more nutrition. This will also keep your gut healthy for the rest of the day as flax seeds improve digestion.
  2. Salad dressing
    Flax seeds go perfectly with salads as they give them a textural and flavour variation. You can add flax seeds to your salad dressing and sprinkle some on your salad as well. This will make salad rich in omega-3 fats and extra fiber. 
  3. Cereal
    Add flax seeds to your regular breakfast cereal to prep you up for the day. You can either add ground flax seeds or whole seeds to your cereal to make it more nutritious.
  4. Flax egg
    You can substitute eggs with flax seeds in your baked goodies. You need to grind the flax seeds, add water to them and add the mixture to your cake/cookies/bread batter. You can also sprinkle some flax seeds on top of them to charge them with more nutrition.
