Yay my first homemade crackers – and they are low carb too!
So on my weekly shopping trip to the dollar store (I am in love with dollar stores) I saw flax seed and had no clue what they are (lame, I know), but I still bought them
Back home I googled for hours to find out everything about them and was fascinated!
Lucky me, that day I made a potato soup and I love some crackers with my soup, but hat adding carbs to carbs (we all know potatoes are full of that stuff).
So why not making crackers out of these wonderful seeds I just bought?!
And here they are – Flax Seed Parmesan Garlic Crackers!

I’ve read, that flax seed meal goes bad so fast and it’s way smarter to buy the seeds and grind them yourself (I do that in a small chopper, I use for onions and shakes). This way you only have the amount of flax meal you need and the whole seeds you have left don’t go bad that fast, woohoo! Those crackers are so crispy and full of flavor, my husband screams for them now every night! Since they are made in the microwave, I have absolutely no problem to do him this favor. So instead of going over your carb limit, try these crackers, you won’t regret it

- 2 tablespoon Parmesan cheese

Notes
*I buy whole flax seed at the dollar store and grind it at home into flax meal. It’s cheaper and if you only use flax meal every once in a while, it would be a waste to buy some, because it gets bad really quick How you make it
