Omega 3 Tricks

Want to get more Omega 3’s? For vegans, it is as easy as eating more flax and walnuts. And other moderate sources of omega 3’s include beans like kidney and pinto, spinach, winter squash and broccoli. As well as other oils.

Always add walnut and flax oils to recipes at cold or room temperature – you don’t want to heat them as cooking can destroy the omega fatty acids. So if you plan on baking this hummus or warming it in your oven you might want to use a super low temperature and bake for a longer period of time to help preserve the omegas.

I’ve replaced my usual olive oil ingredient with a mix of walnut and flax oils And I’ve tossed in a few omega-3 rich raw walnuts too. But you can use EVOO if need be.
