homemade rosemary + thyme cheez-its

easy recipe for homemade cheek-its
I know I’ve thrown a curve-ball every now and then with a labor intensive recipe that requires lots of planning. Well this is not one of those times. In fact, I found that it’s scarishly easy to recreate the ever-addictive Cheez-It snack. With four main ingredients and a few tasty add-ins, these crackers are a gourmet version of the store bought brand. Besides the fact that one of those four ingredients is butter, you can convince yourself the lack of preservatives makes them a ‘healthy option.’ And if you plan on sharing them (totally optional), I recommend a double batch. The bites go quickly. See full recipe below.
p.s. I made up the word “scarishly” but I’m sticking with it.
