They are also very healthy, as flaxseeds have the very good omega-6 to omega-3 fatty acid ratio of 1:4 and contain vitamin E and the phytonutrient lignans.
The ideal time to prepare these delicious flaxseed crackers is in the summer. In peak tomato harvest season, there really is an abundance of ripe tomatoes – and tomatoes are the key ingredient here!
