PantryPic #101: Flax Seeds

-Look for Organic (brown or golden).
-MUST be ground in order to absorb the fiber. 
-Ideally buy whole flax seeds and grind them yourself before use
(using a coffee grinder or small blender).

-DO NOT heat flax seeds since they rancidify very quickly.

Great for adding some valuable Omega-3s to your Oats, Salads, and Shakes
