These turned out so good! Jessica who commented they were too good, was absolutely correct. I will have to try what she did next time, because I will be making them again.
Jennifer
Hi Tonia, thank you so much!
Jessica
These turned out perfectly!! The only problem now is that they taste too good!!! I cut the salt down to 1/4 tsp, finely grated the garlic clove, and Lightly sprinkled “everything bagel seasoning” on top.
Jennifer Zhang
Yum! I will give that a try next time I make them, thanks, Jessica!
Heidi
Are the nutrients based on per serving or the entire recipe?
Jennifer Zhang
Hi Heidi, the nutritional information is for one serving only to make it easier to calculate your daily needs. Hope that helps!

Fall apart so bad you can't even pick them up. Now i have expensive tasty bread crumbs.

Hi Lauren, sorry you had trouble with the crackers, it could be the type of pesto? You can also add an egg into the mixture to make it more robust, try that next time!
