History/ Benefits:

I use flaxseeds (also known as linseeds) a lot as they have a powerhouse of nutrients including omega-3 fatty acids, B vitamins, fibre and the phytonutrients lignans.  These lignans are what makes them a great egg substitute for vegan dishes that need to set …like cakes & puddings.   This pudding is really simple to make and needs no cooking.
