Once again I am gob-smacked by Build A Menu.

This week we are trying to cook from the pantry and freezer, so I knew a few of our favorites would be on the menu –  we had all the ingredients. But I was still in the mood for something new, particularly snacks. I headed off to Build A Menu to plan. And what to my wondering eyes did appear…?

Almond Crackers. With just three ingredients. Made in the microwave.

What?!

Y’all, these crackers are so simple, and surprisingly delicious and crispy. Mmmmmm! I served them with cheese, but my hubby said he thinks they’d also go well with salsa. Now I am dreaming of them with onion dip….

And if you have been thinking of trying out Build A Menu, now’s a great time, because they are running a Back to School sale (use coupon 3FOR15) – you get 3 months for just $15!  That’s about $1 a week, and I am telling you –  you will save more than that by using them. There is nothing better for a grocery budget than a plan in hand when you walk into the store. But hurry and get signed up, this coupon is only good through August 31, 2014.

And now without further ado, I give you…

Microwave Almond Crackers

Ingredients

• 1 1/4 cups almond flour
• 2 eggs (whites only)
• 1/4 tsp salt

Directions

1. Whisk egg whites and salt together, then stir in almond flour. (If you need a recipe for which to use the yolks, I highly recommend this THM cinnamon roll, my current breakfast obsession.)
2. Scrape dough onto parchment paper, cover with another piece of parchment paper, and roll out as thinly as possible.
3. Microwave for 2 minutes (I turned my rotating microwave plate upside down so that the crackers wouldn’t get spun and smooshed.)
4. Remove from microwave and slice into tidy crackers, or in my case, randomly run a pizza cutter along the dough.
5. Microwave another 4 minutes or until crackers are crunchy and slightly browned. I found that a few of mine were a little extra thick and had to be put back in after the others were removed.
6. These crackers get more crispy as they cool. Store at room temperature.
