For a quick, protein- and omega-3-rich healthy snack, try this 5-minute smoked salmon cracker recipe. We like Wasa crackers because they are sturdy, but any healthy cracker will work.

Prep/Cook Time: 5 Minutes, Servings: 1

Ingredients

3 tablespoons low-fat cottage cheese
1 Wasa crispbread
2 slices tomato
1 ounce smoked salmon
Pinch of salt
Pinch of ground pepper

Directions

Spread cottage cheese on crispbread. Top with tomato, smoked salmon, salt and pepper.
