I tried a new recipe (these lovely {graham crackers} from my new favorite blog) today! That's one for my resolutions!
It fits the criteria, because it was:
-easy: I whipped it together while the kids were playing after breakfast. I even rolled out the dough and cut star shapes without feeling like it was an ordeal.
-repeatable: It doesn't call for strange ingredients.
-healthy: It is entirely whole wheat, and though I used some sugar and oil (it's what I had on hand) it could easily be made very natural with coconut oil and natural sweetener. Each little cracker is just 44 calories, too.
-and delicious. They taste like cookies. And as they cool/dry, they taste even more like real graham crackers.
They are not an exact replica of your Nabiscos, but at the rate at which my kiddos like to consume graham crackers, they are likely to be a more economical and healthy option for us! So, I'm thinking these are a worthwhile addition to my repertoire. And a check on my 12 x 12 for 2012 list, might I add!
Next on my list to try is homemade goldfish. Call me crazy, but I think it'll be fun!
