Wasa is setting a new bar for healthy snacking with the introduction of their new Flatbread, Thin & Crispy line of whole grain thin crackers that help make eating well easy and fun. Available in Original, Sesame and Rosemary, these Flatbreads have a delicious taste and satisfying crunch – a winning combination that’s a perfect fit for a healthy lifestyle.
Wasa Flatbreads are made with just a few simple, all-natural ingredients, delicately seasoned and oven baked for a one-of-a-kind taste and texture. This healthier cracker alternative offers endless topping possibilities; they can be used as a blank canvas for creating infinite varieties of meals and snacks that are uniquely your own and are great for entertaining or just kicking up meals another notch.
The first time I had Wasa was a couple years ago, where my friend whipped up a late night snack of Wasa Whole Grain Crispbread topped with a slice of lox sprinkled with dill. Now with the new Thin & Crispy line, there are endless combinations of what you can prepare. My favorite is a simple Caprese. Here’s my recipe that will take you about 2 minutes to prepare and enjoy.
Wasa Caprese
Ingredients
- 4 Wasa Thin & Crispy Original flavor crackers
- Mozzarella cheese, sliced
- 2 tbsp rosemary-infused olive oil
- 1 dozen cherry tomatoes sliced
- 12 basil leaves, washed and patted dry

Directions
- Arrange Wasa crackers on a plate. Layer cheese on top of the crackers. Microwave for 30 seconds.
- Top with tomatoes and brush with the rosemary-infused olive oil.
- Season with salt and pepper
- Then arrange basil leaves on top.
Rosemary-infused Olive Oil
Simply wash and dry fresh rosemary. Chop and place in a bowl. Pour olive oil and let marinate for at least 30 minutes. For added flavor, heat the olive oil and rosemary in a pan for about 15 minutes.
