My Favorite Snack with ak-mak Crackers

This snack has been a favorite of mine since I discovered these crackers. They are not rich or flavorful cracker by any means, but they do posses a wholesom and hearty feeling. In addition to being 100% organic, they claim to use the "whole" grain of wheat which beings you a high-protein wheat,all of which rests on their reputation for sustainability and overall nutritional value. This original Armenian cracker bread has a history dating back thousands of years and was brought to the United States in 1893. Honeslty, it just satifies me and provides a nutrious snack as well.

Share Your Snack Foods 

Since February celebrates National Snack Food Month and Superbowl Sunday, I went ahead and experimented in some serious snacking business and want to share my ideas with everyone.

My snack food that I am sharing with you today is something that I threw together with left over chicken.

I took some Garlic and Herb Laughing Cow cheese (I bet Garlic and Herb cream cheese would be equally great) and mixed it with some chunks of chicken (I also throw in a few minced onions from time to time).

Then I thinly slice a sweet apple and place it on whole grain cracker. Yep, not much going on here.

I can't get enough of it and the combination creates the perfect creamy, salty, and sweet snack.

I also have used left over breaded chicken and that created even more flavor. Wow!

So to list those ingredients out:

Sweet Apples

Cooked Chicken (boiled, baked, grilled or fried)

Garlic and Herb Laughing Cow or regular cream cheese

Crackers

and minced onions (if desired)
