Product: Mediterranean Snacks Gluten-Free Cracked Pepper Lentil Crackers – $3.99+
The last time I tried Mediterranean Snacks’ Lentil Crackers…I wasn’t impressed. And it was the flavor I had the biggest hope of enjoying. They were the Rosemary Herb. And…I just found them to be bland. Regardless, dressing them up might have saved them…but I was looking for a crunchy snack for my afternoon at work where I could just reach and snack…and not worry about spreading hummus or loading it up with veggies in order to add flavor.
The same time I had bought the Rosemary Herb crackers, I had purchased the Cracked Pepper variety as well. And as it was the next up in my gluten-free pantry for snacks…it was what I was working with this week while at work. I wasn’t thrilled to say the least when I measured out the 28 gram serving, I was already dreaming of what else I’d rather be having. That’s how unthrilled I was with the last flavor I tried from Mediterranean Snacks.
But…I shouldn’t judge too quickly.
I settled in at the office and was working away. And when my mid-afternoon stomach rumblies occurred, out came my container with the Mediterranean Snacks Cracked Pepper Lentil Crackers. I sighed…picked one up…and took a bite.
And…the difference was amazing. Honestly. I actually liked these.
Not only are Mediterranean Snacks Lentil Crackers baked, which makes them a healthy option, they are also gluten-free. The ingredients include protein-rich lentils, which are also packed with iron and vitamin B1. These don’t remind me anything of the tasteless Rosemary Herb Lentil Crackers I had from them prior. These had good salty flavor with a hint of spice from the cracked pepper. I found that rather appealing, making these far less bland than the previous crackers. I actually look forward to snacking on these.
These would also taste amazing with a topping, such as hummus, salsa, or vegetables. However, these crackers are just fine on their own. I happily munched away on my snack, not feeling the need to put anything on it. I think Mediterranean Snacks hit it out of the park with this flavor.
Oh, I will be buying these again. If you like a great cracker that is light, healthy, and has a little heat behind it…these are for you.
