SUPER SEEDS
(Family Circle 2/13)
(Family Circle 2/13)
Chia Seeds –
dating back to the Aztecs, these tiny seeds are rich in omega-3s and may help
alleviate hunger. Add whole to cereals,
baked goods and smoothies.
Flax Seeds – also
packed with omega-es, they have a mildly nutty flavor that’s well suited to
blending (into other foods). Always
grind before using or buy already ground – whole seeds are hard to digest.
Hemp Seeds –
Similar in taste to sunflower seeds, these contain all the essential amino
acids, making them an ideal protein source.
Sprinkle whole on yogurt, cereal or salads.
Sesame
Seeds –
deliciously crunchy and mildly sweet, sesames are high in magnesium, copper and
calcium. Try in stir-fries and coatings
for fish or chicken or toss with cooked rice or steamed veggi
