It might look too simple to be true, but this tomato and linseed toast is delicious and satisfying. It’s perfect for breakfast; it’s indeed one of our “regulars” when it comes to our morning toast routine.
Why linseed?
Linseeds, also known as flaxseeds, come from the flax plant (Linum usitatissimum), one of the oldest cultivated crops. They are small, brown or golden seeds with a mild, nutty flavor. They are commonly used as a topping for toast, yogurt, oatmeal, or blended into smoothies.
There are many reasons for that: first, linseeds are one of the best plant-based sources of alpha-linolenic acid (ALA), a type of omega-3 fatty acid. It supports heart health by reducing inflammation and lowering cholesterol levels. Linseed is also high in dietary fiber, promoting digestive health, preventing constipation, and supporting a healthy gut microbiome. Soluble fiber helps regulate blood sugar levels, making linseeds beneficial for people with diabetes.
Adding a sprinkle of line seed to your toasts can really make a difference, so why not?
