Better Than Crisp Bread Flax Cracker
2 Tbsp flax seed meal
2 Tbsp water
spices to taste (optional)
In a bowl, mix flax seed meal with water and spices (I use a fork). Let rest 2-3 minutes.
On a piece of parchment, press and gently spread the mixture with a fork, until the shape desired (usually a 4" X 8" cracker, but can be round or other shapes as well). Microwave for 2.5 minutes or until cracker is solid.
Let cool.
Top with cream cheese, taco dip or anything you might be hankering for.
Makes one cracker.

Tips: I reuse parchment paper to make more crackers.
The crackers store beautifully when loosely bagged, so you can make some for the road.
