OMEGA-3 GRANOLA
This is a granola recipe that improves upon one printed in Martha Stewart Living's February 2010 issue. Removing unnecessary sugar and salt and adding ground flax to the mix greatly improves the health happiness of this recipe. It's easy for kids to make. You can substitute chopped dates or dried cranberries for raisins. Be careful, though, as the latter are often sugar coated. And, of course, chopped almonds can replace the pecans. If you prefer a sexier breakfast, finish the baking without adding any dried fruit, let the granola cool completely, and add 1 cup of chopped dark chocolate pieces. Again, be careful. You're adding some antioxidant benefits but a bunch of extra calories, too!

18 FOODS HIGH IN OMEGA-3S FOR BETTER BRAIN HEALTH
From livestrong.com
- Flaxseeds: 6,479 mg, 405% Adequate Intake (AI) Flax seeds are often ground into a powder and mixed with cereal, oatmeal, yogurts or smoothies for omega-3s and fiber.
- Chia Seeds: 5,064 mg, 316% AI. Chia seeds were famous in the '90s not for their health benefits but for their... pets. Remember Chia Pets, those terracotta figurines that sprouted chia that resembled hair or fur?
- Herring: 4,527 mg 283% AI. Pacific Herring has 283 percent of the AI for omega-3s per 6 ounces cooked. Herring, like other fatty fish, offers a solid amount of protein and vitamin B12, making it a nice substitute if you're getting bored of salmon.
- Salmon: 4,252 mg, 266% AI. You can't go wrong with salmon: It's high in omega-3s, protein and vitamin D. Image Credit: karandaev/iStock/GettyImages. Speaking of salmon, if you're remotely familiar with omega-3s, you probably know that this popular fish is a great source of the nutrient.
- Oysters: 2,692 mg, 168% AI. If you like shellfish, oysters pack a nutritional punch with 168 percent of the AI for omega-3s as well as 32 grams of protein and through-the-roof levels of immune-supporting zinc and vitamin B12 per 3-ounce serving.
- Walnuts: 2,579 mg, 161% AI. Walnuts boast the highest amount of omega-3s of all nuts, making them a favorite brain food. Image Credit: fcafotodigital/iStock/GettyImages.
- Canned Sardines: 1,649 mg, 103% AI. Some folks might have a hard time eating these little fish straight from the can, but adding sardines to your plate can mean good things for your health.
- Tofu: 1,467 mg, 92% AI. Like nuts and seeds, tofu is one of the best foods high in omega-3 that's not fish. A 1-cup serving of tofu provides 92 percent of the AI for omega-3, and it's also a powerhouse for complete plant-based protein.
- Canola Oil: 1,279 mg, 80% AI. Olive oil tends to get all the love thanks to its abundance of unsaturated fats that deem it a heart-healthy option for cooking and salad dressings.
- Granola: 887 mg, 55% AI. Certain types of granola, particularly those with flaxseed, can be good sources of omega-3 fatty acids. For example, pumpkin flax granola provides 55 percent of the AI for omega-3s per 3/4 cup.
