Lavosh Crackers

One of the things that is impossible to buy not wrapped in plastic is crackers or savoury biscuits. There is nothing better than a cracker with some nibbles or a stand alone snack. We tried out a new recipe last weekend and lucky I had some help from my grandsons and my niece. It's good to teach children to cook from a young age. They are more likely to eat food that they help prepare and learn an important life skill.
