The Kitchen Table Bakers Gourmet Wafer Crisps

Gourmet Crisps For A Healthy Diet

CAPSULE REPORT: If you like cheese, you'll love discovering these tasty, low-calorie, low-carb crisps. They’re basically cheese, cheese, cheese, with a choice of regular parmesan plus 8 different seasonings. Now instead of cheese and crackers, you have cheese in crackers.

Gourmet Wafer Crisps from The Kitchen Table Bakers are a fine contribution to snackdom, crackerdom and gourmet food accentdom. Delicate, lacy baked cheese thins, they are made in nine distinctive and tempting flavors: the original Aged Parmesan plus Caraway, Everything, Flaxseed, Garlic, Italian Herb, Jalapeño, Onion Poppy, Rosemary and Sesame. A box of any one would impress, as these wafers have nay talents. Use them as:

Garlic Crisps.

A snacking cracker
A crisp for dipping
A garnish or crouton for soups and salads
A crumble to top potatoes, vegetables and other dishes
A munch with wine and cocktails
A base for canapés

In the canapé category, the toppings are only limited by one’s imagination.

Thin-sliced prosciutto or Serrano ham makes a nifty “ham and cheese” hors d’oeuvre
Salmon caviar with crème fraîche on the Rosemary Crisp is very elegant
So is a thin-sliced cucumber with dilled creme fraîche on the Italian Herb Crisp

The website has a variety of tasty recipes including:

Spiced Red Lentil Dip to pair with the Sesame Crisp
Truffle-Scented Risotto to top the Aged Parmesan Crisp
Seven-Layer Taco Dip to serve with the Jalapeño Crisp
Roasted Tomato Soup to serve with the Rosemary Crisp

While you have to pay for them, the crisps are otherwise free:

Wheat-free
Gluten-free
Sugar-free
Egg-free
Trans fat-free
Preservative-free
Free of artificial ingredients

The all-natural, handmade wafers are essentially cheese and seasonings. That makes them high in calcium. Because aged parmesan is used, the lactose level is lower than with younger cheeses. And, cheese is a low-carb food.

Italian Herb Crisps.

Three crisps, which are about 2-1/2" in diameter, have 80 calories and 50 calories from fat. The portion contains 6g total fat, 15mg cholesterol, 150mg sodium, 2g carbohydrate, 0g sugar and 6g protein.
