Powerfood...ground flax

Flax seeds are rich in fiber, phytochemicals, and omega 3 fatty acids.  It is very nutritious and I use it regularly in muffins and baked goods instead of flour.  Use ground flax seeds so that all the nutrients are available to your body.
You can buy it at most grocery stores and Costco has a great one as well.  Make sure it is vaccuum packed and then store it in the fridge once you open the package.  I will post recipies that use ground flax in place of flour.
One great breakfast (or anytime snack) meal is my Flax Pancake...

Ingredients:

• 1/2 cup of egg white (I use egg white from a carton)
• 2 tbsp of ground flax seeds
• 2 tsps (or to taste) of cinnamon
• splash of vanilla
• pinch of salt
• 1/4 cup of raspberries, blueberries, blackberries, sliced strawberries or whatever berries you love!
• You can use banana or other fruit...try different versions to find your favourite!
• Non stick cooking spray or my preference is to rub the nonstick pan with some coconut oil
• Optional: tbsp of chia seeds (to increase the fibre and omega 3 fatty acids)

Mix all of the above ingredients in a bowl or measuring cup and stir or whisk together. 

Heat the pan to medium heat and pour the ingredients into the pan.  Cover the pan and let the egg cook through.  Check on the pancake and when it is solid enough to flip turn it over with a spatula and cook the other side.  It takes a few minutes per side but keep and eye on it and flip when you think it is ready.

It will form a "pancake" and you can eat it as is...or top it with pureed berries or whatever you like.
If you let it cool, you can wrap it in foil and take it with you on the go as a nutrition packed breakfast or snack.
