Two tablespoons added to your cold or hot cereals, pancakes and waffles or baked into your breads, muffins and quick breads brings you amazing nutrition.

I just started using Flaxseed meal within the last month or so. I was looking for some nutritious additives, to help put fiber and ingredients that might be good for the heart and the rest of the body, such as lots of omega-3. Research led me to flax seed, so off I went, to the store and found some. I started adding it to my cereal for breakfast, my Carnation Instant Breakfast when that's breakfast, my homemade yogurt for my lunch time dessert, my ice cream (OK, an occasional treat that I generally avoid).
I found that I like the stuff. So, when I was getting near to running out of my first pound, instead of buying it at what to me seemed to be inflated prices I decided it was time to check Amazon.com.
Wow, am I glad I did. Four 16 oz bags cost about $5 more than one 16 oz container at the store. I used the subscribe and save option (which I also use for my tea), and it's $13.75 for 64 oz compared to $8 + for 16 at the store. And this is good stuff.
Also, I really like getting Bob's Red Mill because I really respect owner Bob Moore's plans to sell the company to his employees using an employee stock ownership plan. A really neat thing to do.
So, would I recommend this flaxseed meal? Let's put it this way, I'm giving one of the bags to my Mom, and when I go through the rest, it will be just about time that my subscription sends me more. And if I'm going to use it, I will definately recommend it.
Just what I wanted! April 25, 2010

I bought this flaxseed meal to use in my morning smoothies and oatmeal. To keep it fresh once I opened the bag, I transferred the flaxseed meal into a cannister that I keep in the fridge. The quality is great, and the price was much better than what I could find at stores in my area. At first, I was not a fan of the taste and texture, but I got used to it after a few days, and now I don't notice it at all!
Great in oatmeal! April 10, 2010

My mother recommended this product a while back. This flaxseed meal is easy to digest and packed full of nutrition. I add this to my oatmeal every morning.
My daily yummy oatmeal recipe: Boil the oatmeal (not the quick kind) with water, turn off the heat, sprinkle a little cinnamon, add couple of spoonful of this flaxseed meal and stir. (The amount of oatmeal and the flaxseed meal will depend on the individual taste.) Pour into a bowl; add frozen (or regular) blueberries, banana, and sprinkle with roasted walnuts. You can add a little maple syrup or brown sugar for sweetness. It's delicious without feeling that you are eating food that's good-for-you. Even my picky hubby likes it. Highly recommended for your daily health routine.
(Note: Pay attention to the expiration date and keep the product in the fridge in the summer so it won't get stale. Also, after you opened the bag, keep it in an airtight container to retain freshness.)

We all know how good flaxseed is for us (non-animal source of omegas,fiber and all), but the taste and convenience makes this product an essential part of any menu--sprinkled on soups,salads,cereals, baked into breads,deserts,pizza dough, added to smoothies,dips,taco fillings; the uses are endless. Good taste,good nutrition, low cost and qualified free shipping = a win/win/win/win situation.

I was encouraged to try this product by sprinkling it on other foods, such as yogurt, rice pudding, hot and cold cereals. Benefit from the organic goodness Bob's Red Hill has to offer and give this unique product a try. The company offers the best of all organic grains. For those of us that love to bake their own breads, this is the only reliable source to go. Their customer service is full of ideas and enthusiasm for their grains, and the range they have to offer is excellent. Please give this company a try, and you will be like me.....purchasing them through amazon with automatic scheduled delivery. What could be better?
