Snack time is one of my favorite times of the day. Don’t get me wrong, I love a full-on meal, but sometimes you just need something light and delicious to get you through. That’s why I couldn’t be more excited about Simple Mills’ NEW Organic Seed Flour Crackers! They are now available at Whole Foods and the perfect snacking cracker.

I’ve been a huge fan of Simple Mills for years now. Their products are unmatched! These new Seed Flour Crackers take the snacking game to a whole new level! They have the most flaky, crispy texture, making them the ideal vehicle to load up with your favorite toppings! They’re available in three different flavors – original, garlic & herb, and everything, all of which are absolutely delicious and made from a nutrient-dense three-seed flour blend of sunflower seeds, flax seeds, and pumpkin seeds. Plus, they provide a great source of protein, fiber, and antioxidants to keep you powering through your day!

Whether I’m enjoying a quick snack plate or making a board of various cracker bites for an at-home happy hour, these crackers are my new go-to. Each flavor is so delicious and fun to pair with different toppings. I absolutely loving topping the garlic & herb with a variety of savory combos like mashed avocado with mini peppers and cilantro, hummus with cucumber slices, or mozzarella with cherry tomatoes, basil, and balsamic vinegar. The original flavor is great with literally anything, but I especially love using them when I’m craving something a little sweet like these goat cheese, strawberry, and balsamic bites and brie, blackberry, and honey bites.

Annie’s and Cascadian Farms at Walmart

Life can be pretty hectic. Between work, school, friends, kids, etc., we could all use a little help in terms of having enough time, especially when it comes to making smart breakfast choices. That’s where Walmart comes in. I’ve been making stops at my local Walmart to pick up some of my must-have items like fruits and veggies, plus they also carry better for you, organic options like Annie’s and Cascadian Farm.

On my most recent Walmart haul, I picked up Annie’s Cocoa Bunnies and Cascadian Farm Oat and Honey cereals. They’re both certified USDA Organic and absolutely delicious! I enjoyed my Cascadian Farm Oat and Honey with some fresh fruit and unsweetened almond milk before heading out the door. I think we can all agree, nothing beats a 5 minute breakfast!  I also love that this granola is non-GMO with no artificial colors or flavors.

I love my Annie’s Cocoa Bunnies with some milk as well, but I decided to mix things up a bit with these super easy chocolate peanut butter cereal bars. They only require one additional ingredient and will be a recipe that the entire family will love!

You just mix together 2 cups of the Cocoa Bunnies with 1 cup of natural, smooth peanut butter, spread the mixture in a parchment-lined 8x8 baking dish, and freeze for 45 minutes to an hour. Once hardened, remove the mixture, cut it into bars, and enjoy! You can also store them in the freezer until you’re ready to eat them. They make for a great snack or on-the-go, better for you breakfast option, and the kids will love them! Who doesn’t love peanut butter and chocolate?

Make sure to head to your local Walmart to pick up your Annie’s and Cascadian Farm products along with your other essentials like fruits and veggies. They make breakfast so much easier without compromising quality by using great, organic ingredients. Whether you choose to enjoy them with milk and fresh fruit or give the protein-packed cereal bars a try, you really can’t go wrong!
