Yes, if you have normal brown flax...that should work fine (just grind it in a mini-blender or coffee grinder until powdered). Brown flax just has a little stronger taste than golden flax which is much milder. Otherwise, it should work the same way as golden...just a little stronger tasting. Let me know how it turns out for you if you try it with the regular flax. :-)Gourmet Girl Cookshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10741830600608488811noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2285523888432056855.post-82730072264276945342014-08-03T05:29:34.028-04:002014-08-03T05:29:34.028-04:00Tried this today with coconut flour, NOPE!

You might want to do a "test freeze" on 1 or 2 first to make sure it doesn't change their texture and flexibility. :-)Gourmet Girl Cookshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10741830600608488811noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2285523888432056855.post-64342948409456901642014-06-27T19:49:36.836-04:002014-06-27T19:49:36.836-04:00Can I freeze these?Can I freeze these?Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04574139825291282650noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2285523888432056855.post-55764551338348757102014-04-09T23:05:43.142-04:002014-04-09T23:05:43.142-04:00Hi Mystic -- I started to respond to you yesterday...Hi Mystic -- I started to respond to you yesterday and got interrupted. Sorry I'm just getting back to you today. You could try a couple of things. You could try just using almond flour in place of the flax, although it might not produce the flexibility that the flax offers. You cold try making just one to see how it turns out. You could also try substituting finely grated Parmesan for the flax. Lastly there is a possibility that you could use coconut flour but MUCH less. With coconut flour, instead of using 2 teaspoons of flax, try maybe 1/2 teaspoon of coconut flour in its place. So you don't waste ingredients, I would suggest experimenting with making 1 single wrap until you find a substitution you like. Let me know how it works. Thanks! :-)Gourmet Girl Cookshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10741830600608488811noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2285523888432056855.post-66239608610943278322014-04-08T16:32:19.852-04:002014-04-08T16:32:19.852-04:00Looks really good.

Then, in the morning, fill it with your sandwich fillings and take to work. If you put anything "wet" -- like tomatoes, etc., you might want to take them separately and add them before you eat it so it doesn't make it soggy. Hope you enjoy it! :-)Gourmet Girl Cookshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10741830600608488811noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2285523888432056855.post-90321573350726610692014-04-03T18:51:03.514-04:002014-04-03T18:51:03.514-04:00That looks really good!
