I don't have actual recipes but have used wheat germ before in muffins. I would tend to think it could be substituted evenly. We usually mix a tablespoon or so into flavored yogurt or toss some into the cereal bowl.

I'm new with the flax seed too but have heard great things about it health wise so will be experimenting more with it in the future.

I put a tablespoon of ground flax seed on my oatmeal every morning. I have even put it on cold cereal too, but I prefer it on oatmeal

I love ground flax in my baked goods. I add a couple tablespoons in with the flour when I am making muffins. I add a quarter cup to my favorite bread recipe.

I am diabetic and in an effort to lower my blood sugars, began taking 3 Tablespoons of flax seed daily in my morning juice (Crystal Light fake orange juice). Since taking ground flax seed, my blood sugars have been amazingly low.

Hi, I bake the muffin recipe on the back of Bob's red mill ground flax seed bag. Five stars!!
