Product Review: Rosemary Herb Lentil Crackers

Tis the season for entertaining! With all of the holiday parties and get togethers coming up I have two things in mind: How to eat fantastic food at every opportunity; and how to avoid gaining a massive amount of weight while I do it. My plan is to keep my munching on the healthy(er) side of the buffet line and be super strict on my portion sizes.

I found a snack yesterday that is great for finding healthier snacks, but I may be in danger when it comes to portion sizes since I can’t stop eating them. Rosemary Herb Lentil Crackers are high in protein and low in fat. Great combination!

Ease of Use

These are ready to eat crackers that are easy to open and eat anytime.

Appearance

The picture on the box made me think that the crackers were going to be a bit fluffy, but they weren’t at all. The crackers are light and thin with varying shades of golden brown. There are green freckles spread throughout, showing the herby goodness to come.

Taste and Texture

The crunch is outstanding! Perfectly light and crisp with a feeling of substance in every bite. When I first opened the package I was struck by the rosemary smell, I thought it meant I was in for an overwhelming flavor. I was pleased to find that the herb to cracker ratio was perfect. The crackers had a deep, earthy, wholesome flavor that kept drawing me in. I was able to identify the individual flavors of rosemary, olive oil and sea salt, yet all in balance.

Versatility

Crackers can be used for many things. I can’t wait to try these with a good spinach and artichoke dip! They would also make a mouthwatering coating for chicken.

Overall Value

Lentil Crackers cost $2 to $3, depending on where you buy them. It is a small box (4.5oz.) so maybe it will help with the portion thing after all.

Rating

These were amazing crackers. I will look for them again.
