Raincoast Crisps.
I'm sort of a cracker nut. I love them. Ritz, oyster crackers, TJ's Savory Thins, Triscuits with cheese ... or how about Carr's water table crackers or those ones where there's a pretzel on one side and a cracker on the other? Geniusly delicious! I could snack on them all day. I know I've met a dear friend when they not only admit to having a box of Wheat Thins for lunch, but they are proud of it. But I do my best to eat healthfully and lately that means more of what's whole and natural from mother nature and less of anything processed. But I found a cracker that fits both -- Raincoast Crisps. I actually heard about them from a health nut girl who talked about them actually being good for you. They are relatively low in calories for their size, and with all the nuts and seeds, they are packed with fiber and a little bit of protein. My favorites are the ones with cranberries and the other one with figs. The bummer is that they aren't cheap -- my Whole Foods carries them for about $8 a box. Yowza. But they are worth it. With a little bit of cheese or an apple, I'm really full after eating a few so they last a while. A friend of mine said they have a knockoff of the Rosemary flavor at Trader Joe's but I have yet to try those. I have yet to eat them any other way than snacking but I think they'd be a great party appetizer or even crumbled on soups ands salads. Love!
