You want to know what the real struggle is?! Getting too excited over great deals. The ground flaxseed was on sale for $2.98 for this big bag. As a frugal coupon loving girl I went back for another..
Thought it would be an awesome substitue for protein powder in our smoothies.
Not so much. Too gritty for the kids.
But behold! I found a recipe they love, I love, and my husband loves!
This bag is currently $4.99 at my BJ's store.
My 2 and 4 year old did the lines on the cookies! They love helping in the kitchen!
Right now there is a $2 off Stober Farms Organic Milled BJs coupon from the front of store flyer!
Let me know if you make these cookies and like them!
What do you do with ground flaxseed?

I hide flaxseed in lots of my cooking. Even yummy cookies! Thanks for the recipe. Passing it on. 🙂
Thanks Susan!
Peanut butter cookies are my favorite. I’m going to try making them with flaxseed. It sounds interesting, and I’ll bet it’s good–and healthy!
They are our favorite too that’s why I was really excited when we made these!
Kathy,
That is such a good idea about the pizza crust! How much do you add? I am going to try that! I usually use whole wheat flour for pancakes and waffles wondering if the flax would be a bit too much for us?! lol
We use a lot of ground flaxeed. It’s great to add to almost any baked product like muffins, loaves, and cookies. We also add it to pancakes and waffles. And I put a 1/4 cup in homemade pizza crust the other night and no one even blinked an eye. 🙂
