Triscuit Recipes to Serve at Your Next Party (2024)

FAQs

What's good to put on Triscuits? ›

Try offering a buttery, flaky cracker (such as Ritz) and a grain cracker (such as Triscuit) along with your bread. Water crackers are also virtually flavorless, allowing your other charcuterie flavors to shine.

In the microwave, spread crackers on a sheet of paper towel and microwave on high for 20 to 30 seconds. The cooking time might vary depending on the microwave's power, so you might need to heat them longer. Allow the crackers to cool, and they should feel crisp again.

Triscuits taste great with a sharp Cheddar and good mustard like Alstertor beer mustard, which I've always considered to be the Charlize Theron of mustards: smooth, yet not without an edge. But enough about mustard, you're here to satisfy your Triscuit curiosity.

Combine coleslaw blend and dressing. Top crackers with meats, cheese, coleslaw and pickles.

Whole Grain is the #1 ingredient in this product

There are a few that I would stay away from eggplants, brussels sprouts, turnips, beets, zucchini and mushrooms. Many of these vegetables taste best when cooked, and Charcuterie boards generally don't include steamed or cooked veggies.

“Triscuits aren't a bad choice, since the first ingredient is whole grain wheat, which is what you want to look for,” says Sassos.

They're the only kind that will do for cheese and crackers. Few other crackers can achieve such a feat.

Expiration dates on Triscuit packaging, commonly marked as "best by" or "best before," indicate the point at which the product is expected to be at its peak quality. The term “best by” suggests that although Triscuits may lose some texture or flavor after this date, they often remain safe to eat if properly stored.

What to do with expired crackers? ›

Make a crust: Crush the crackers or hardtack into small pieces and mix them with melted butter to make a crust for quiches or savory tarts. Use as a snack: Stale crackers and hardtack can still be enjoyed as a snack. Spread some peanut butter or cheese on them, or dip them in hummus or salsa.

A Better Crunchy Choice

Triscuits are a much better option than chips because they are made from whole grains. They have ½ the calories that chips do, and more than twice the fiber.

Most often, your snacks will be easy to digest foods that have 15 – 30 grams of carbohydrates. Here are some examples of snacks with around 15 grams of carbohydrate: 3 whole-wheat crackers (Triscuits) with 2 tbsp natural peanut butter = 15g.
