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.
Yum! I will give that a try next time I make them, thanks, Jessica!
Are the nutrients based on per serving or the entire recipe?
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!
