I first used it in pumpkin flaxseed muffins (I posted the recipe on here--you can do a search), but I was eating more than one a day (pretty good taste if I say so myself), so I now put the flaxseed into my morning oatmeal. Remember, the flaxseed has to be ground and you must keep it refrigerated as it goes bad quickly. I use Irish oatmeal (1/4 cup with 2/4 cup of water in microwave for two minutes). When it's ready I put about 15-20 grams (three to four heaping tablespoons of flaxseed) on top and mix. Then I add about 1/2 cup or so of skim milk, mix again. Ground flaxseed is sticky and clumps together so you need to break it up some. When I have something else other than oatmeal in the morning, I do as Bonnie does and mix it into orange juice.
