    I add 1/2 tablespoon of ground flax seed to my breakfast smoothie. It can also be added to soup or stew.

    I coated baked chicken with it yesterday. Added a bit of panko and parm cheese.
    Came out delicious. Made it up myself. Added some spices like smoked paprika, etc.
    For next time: Buy ground flaxmeal. Your body can absorb it better.

    +1 on buying the flax seed already milled/ground

    I usually add several tablespoons to things like pasta sauce, meatballs, meatloaf, and the like.

    I put ground flax seed in almost anything, but I don't use any specific recipes. I throw it in sauces, baked goods, cold or hot cereals, yogurt, smoothies, salads. As long as whatever I'm having has a fairly distinct flavour, it just takes on the same flavour I find. As long as you don't mind the texture of it (it can seem a bit gritty in certain sauces, for example) it can be added to a huge variety of things. Hope that helps.
