      Thanks, Melissa!! They are great. We tried to replicate the recipe she came up with at her house. I’m so bad at recipes ’cause I just eyeball everything and forget to write down what I do. You’re the queen of these types of treats so let me know if you make them and if you’d tweak them at all! 🙂 -Rama

    These sound so good! I have a question, I’ve always read that flax seeds should always be (freshly) ground in order to absorb the nutrients from them. Do you know anything about that?
