Crisps & Dip!

As you know, we’re crazy about the Crisps. The flavors are FLATOUT terrific, and that’s why I often eat them plain without dip.

When entertaining, however, I absolutely love to present the crisps nicely on a platter with some of my favorite dips.  Getting rid of the bag goes along way, especially when you are in a rush, and need to put together a quick platter.

The Crisp’s zig-zagged shape looks awesome on a platter , and you’d be surprised how great the Crisps look/taste accompanied with dip. Some of my favorite dips are:

Sour cream dip

Hummus

Guacamole

Salsa

Sliced Cheeses and soft cheeses such as goat cheese and cream cheese

Marinara sauce (accompanied with the Four Cheese Crisps, it tastes like pizza!)

For the FLATOUT health-conscious: low fat hummus, salsa, Laughing Cow cheese, and pico de gallo taste great with the Sea Salt Crisps.

How do you dip your Crisps???? Let us know. We are FLATOUT curious!

WHERE ARE THE CRISPS??

Hello Crisps Fans!

Every day, I receive emails asking how you guys can get Crisps in grocery stores near your homes. While we are working as quickly as we can to fill up your local retailers with the Edgeon Crisps, the absolute best way to expedite the process is to ask grocery store managers yourself! Store managers love hearing feedback from their shoppers, because they want to provide shoppers with the delicious food they want! Keep up the good work- ask your grocery store mangers! We’ll keep you posted as we get them in more and more grocery stores.

Flatout Breakfast: who needs bagels?!

As you guys probably have noticed, I absolutely love Flatout and eggs together.  It is FLATOUT delicious and filling! if you are looking for a quicker breakfast, try out the new Flatout Creation one of our fans Jan came up with.  Flatout accompanied with cream cheese! The folks at Flatout tried this creation, and it is delicious! For a quick and convenient breakfast, spread cream cheese and sliced tomatos and cucumbers onto a Flatout flatbread.  You can fold, roll up, or eat open-faced.  It is tasty and flatout easy to prepare. Thanks, Jan!

Flatout Eggs-elent!

I’m all about kicking the day off on the right note.  I’ve always been a huge proponent of breakfast, because it provides energy, starts the day off right, and importantly, eating early is great for the metabolism. Flatout tastes great accompanying eggs on the side, but there are also many delicious ways to directly incorporarte eggs (or egg whites) with Flatout. I love to load veggies into my eggs, because they are filling and nutritious.  Also, cut up fruit or sliced tomatoes are great sides.

Check out my favorite – and most healthy- Flatout Eggs-elent Breakfast Creation.

The Mega Egg Wrap

All You Need:

-Flatout flatbread

- egg whites

- lots of vegetables chopped: tomatos, onions, spinach, mushrooms… whatever you prefer!

-OPTIONAL: fat-free cheese

All you need to do:

Scramble egg whites and vegetables in a skillet.  Once cooked, pour into a Flatout flatbread.  Add cheese if you would like, and let it melt into the warm eggs. Wrap, roll and enjoy!
