My first experience with Kashi was their cereal a few years ago, which became a favourite.

The pita crisps can be eaten on it own or served with hummus, dips, soup etc...

I served it as a side with this vegetable meat soup and we finished the whole packet of pita crisps :)

1 tbsp oil

1 tbsp coriander seeds

3/4 tbsp cumin seeds

1/2 tbsp fennel seeds

1/4 tbsp pepper seeds

1/2 tbsp salt

1/2 cup of meat with bones or more

1/4 cup of each carrot, cabbage, beans, celery, onion, tomato

3 to 4 cups broth or water

Grind the coriander, cumin and fennel coarsely or fine depending on your preference. If you want to taste the whole spices then grind coarsely and if you don't like to taste the whole spices grind it fine.

Heat the oil, add the ground spices and sauté then add the meat. When the meat changes colour add onion, tomato and the vegetables one at a time and mix. Add the broth or water with the salt and cook covered in medium heat until the meat is cooked. This can be done faster in the pressure cooker.

Serve it hot.

Kashi snack crackers can be served on it own, with dips or hummus. There are two varieties fire roasted vegetable and toasted asiago.

Next time you are at the grocery store make sure to check out Kashi to have as a snack or serve it at the next gathering or meal.
