What I'm Reading This Week #16

Good Friday to you!  Literally.  I can't believe Easter is here.  Anyone else having epic wind and rain storms over the past month?  I mean good friggin' luck trying to enjoy any time out there and we're not afraid of weather.  As I type, there are 40mph gusts.  I went out to paint the critter cages on the planters and feel like I have hypothermia at 47 degrees when yesterday's weather forecast said it would be 74 today.  Da fuq?  Guess who finally took the bedroom Christmas tree down Wednesday?  It was neutrally decorated so it was fine but it came on every night and gave a cozy glow.  I knew one day I would look at it and know it needed to go to sleep until November 1st.  That's the other thing, I will be decorating for everything extra early from now on.  August 1st- Fall decor as I will thoroughly be over summer by then and given that's the day Mom passed, I'll need something to lift my spirits.  November 1st it'll be ...

Food Review: Back to Nature Multigrain Flaxseed Seeded Flatbread Crackers

When I went to grab our favorite crackers we occasionally use for tuna salad, they were out.  

Womp womp...

We love the Back to Nature brand and thought we'd give one of the other varieties a try...


Here's a peek at the nutritional info...


You can see the fat it does have are the beneficial ones which is always a plus.

Our usual stone ground seeded crackers are the size of normal crackers but these are longer so it feels like you're getting more.  Each flatbread is like getting 2 1/2 regular sized crackers.


They are nice and sturdy to hold up to my tuna salad for lunch and though they have slightly less sodium than the other crackers (30mg less), it doesn't taste bland.


They would also be perfect for an after workout snack with some apple and cheese slices or peanut butter.  Whatever your preference!


I'd say it's pretty likely we'll be buying these again!  They would make for a nice change in texture and size for cheese plates for entertaining with a healthier twist as well!

Have you tried Back to Nature crackers?  What are your favorite crunchy snacks?

    I have those packed for my lunch with my tuna today so I get to try them and I'm looking forward to it now since you like them. They do look really good with the cheese and apples. Yum!

    I have some that look like those in my cupboard that I like a lot, but they're a different brand. I like crackers of all kinds and popcorn as crunchy snacks.

      I love crackers too (except I need to give Triscuits another try) and love me some TJ's Lite Kettle Corn!

    I like spicy roasted chickpeas, Marys Gone Cracker's with goat cheese or hummus, and spicy popcorn. I guess I really just like salty and spicy! (Also, I'm a first time reader. Love your posts and realness! I love reading blogs to see what's working for others and feel like we're similar in our approach. I'll be back!)
