How Do You Use Flax Seed In Yogurt?
I have used flax seed meal as a recipe ingredient for years because the health benefits of flax seed are excellent. Only recently, though, have I discovered how delicious flax seed is in yogurt. The benefits of flax seed include omega-3 essential fatty acids, fiber, and lignans. Recent studies suggest that the benefits of flax seed may extend far beyond what has been previously thought. Using flax seed in a recipe may lower cholesterol and the risk of breast, prostate, and colon cancers. Flax seed may decrease inflammation from arthritis, Parkinson’s disease, and asthma. Flax seed may also help regulate blood sugar. This easy recipe will show you how to use flax seed in yogurt, Using a spoon, scoop 6 oz of yogurt into a bowl used for eating. My favorite yogurt to use with flax seed is nonfat chocolate cocoa yogurt from Trader Joe’s. The flax seed adds a delicious nutty flavor to the chocolate yogurt. Any flavored yogurt will do, though, especially the fruit-on-the-bottom varieties. Eve
