Flaxseeds
Flaxseeds are an impressive little superfood. They offer heart-healthy omega-3 fats, plenty of plant-based protein, and dietary fiber. One spoonful packs quite a punch. In fact, one tablespoon already offers about two grams of protein. Buy them whole or crushed, and when a recipe calls for eggs as a binding agent, use your flaxseeds. Simply mix up one tablespoon of flaxseed with three tablespoons of water. Let that sit in your fridge for about 15 minutes. After that, you’ll have something with the gelatinous texture of a raw egg to put in your baked goods. You can also simply sprinkle flaxseed on oatmeal or yogurt for protein.
