grind it in your coffee bean grinder or food processor if its whole. Then proceed to put it in cereal, baked goods, any kind of dish really, use it as a topping...
Probably best to start out with small amts and see what you like as far as texture changes.0 -
I grind my seeds up in a coffee grinder and then I'll add a tsp or 2 to my supper meals. It's good to put it in soups and sauces. Or atleast I use to do that. I haven't in a while. I'll have to start again. lol

I mill a tbsp. per day in my Magic Bullet. I use it on oatmeal, cereal and in smoothies.0
