All Cracked Up

Today's post is a combination of a great Deal and homemade good. In our house, we are big fans of the cracker. We love them all: Saltine, Wheat thin, Graham, Triscuit, Cheezit, but most of all the hallowed Club cracker. Crackers are a funny little food. They are so small and flavorful, but yet they make a big statement on the scale if you eat too many, which is usually the case in our house. So, I may have found an answer for this, for this week at least.

On coupons.com they have a printable coupon for a box of Special K crackers for free. That's right, for FREE. Conditions are that it is up to $3.49 and only redeemable at Target. But hey, they are light on the tummy and on the wallet. Sounds like a good deal to me. Here is the link for those who want to partake. The link will take you to the homepage. To find the coupon, click on the Kelloggs Savings Center on the left hand side about half way down. The coupon should be there for you to print off.

As for the homemade good. So your little baby doesn't feel left out when you are chowing down on tasty crackers. Here is a recipe that I just tried for homemade teething biscuits. So far Truman seems to like them, and they are really easy to make. Enjoy!

Teething Biscuit Recipes - Eggless Baby Cereal Cookies

Ingredients:

1 cup flour
1 cup dry infant rice cereal with bananas (or other flavored or
unflavored infant cereal)
3 tablespoons cooking oil
ice water

Directions:
Preheat oven 425F
Mix flour and cereal.
Gradually stir in oil. Mix a little ice water at a time (start with 1/4 cup) until dough begins to form a ball and pull away from the bowl.
Roll out to the thickness of a cracker on a floured surface and cut into desired shapes.
Bake on an ungreased cookie sheet 10-12 min. or until lightly brown. Cool completely.

Store in an airtight container. (you may want to try 1/2 plain and 1/2 flavored baby cereal as the taste when using full flavored baby cereal is very strong!)
