This superfood breakfast bowl or snack is loaded with fiber and omega-3 fats and literally takes 5 minutes to make!
During my busy weeks, I prepare all of the dry ingredients beforehand and store them to a microwave-safe container so all I need to do is add the wet ingredients, microwave and add my toppings!
What Is Flax Meal?
Flax meal is ground flax seeds. Flax seeds are high in fiber and omega-3 fats and are easier to digest when they are ground, which is why flax meal is such a great superfood! Flax can also help bind things together, making it a great egg replacement in some recipes.
