SHERIDAN, WYOMING – August 4, 2025 – When summer brings its golden light and laid-back rhythm, there’s nothing better than unfussy snacks that deliver bold flavors, creamy textures, and a good, satisfying crunch. That’s exactly what Wasa brings to the table this season — with its versatile crispbread varieties ready to elevate any picnic, brunch, or breezy balcony hangout.
Forget heavy meals or complicated prep. Wasa’s summer recipes are all about relaxed indulgence, designed to be shared, dipped, and devoured in good company. From a pistachio-kissed cottage cheese dip to a vibrant beetroot hummus, these dishes hit all the right notes: creamy, crunchy, and packed with personality.
Creamy Meets Crunchy: Cottage Cheese and Pistachio Dip
This is not your average brunch spread. Inspired by the pistachio craze that swept social media, this cottage cheese dip layers sweetness and herbal zest with the satisfying snap of Wasa crispbread.
Perfect for a weekend brunch board or a light lunch starter, it’s creamy enough to feel indulgent but light enough to keep things fresh.
You’ll need:
- 300 g cottage cheese
- 2 tbsp honey (plus more for topping)
- 1 tbsp fresh thyme (plus extra for garnish)
- 1 tbsp rosemary, finely chopped
- ½ tbsp olive oil (plus a drizzle for serving)
- 2 tbsp pistachios, roughly chopped
- Salt & pepper
- Wasa crispbread of your choice
How to serve it:
Blend everything (except the pistachios) until smooth but not too thin. Spread it on a plate and sprinkle with chopped pistachios, fresh herbs, and a drizzle of honey and olive oil. Serve with Wasa crispbread — we love the Poppy Seed & Sea Salt variety for extra texture.
Color and Flavor Explosion: Beetroot Hummus
If you want to bring a splash of color and a punch of flavor to your next outdoor meal, beetroot hummus is a must. It's not just beautiful — it’s packed with nutrients and bursting with lemony, garlicky goodness.
What you’ll need:
- Roasted beetroot, peeled and chopped
- 1 can chickpeas, drained
- 160 g tahini
- Juice and zest of 2–3 lemons
- 1 garlic clove
- 65 ml olive oil
- 1 tsp cumin
- 1 tsp salt
- Sesame seeds, chopped parsley, olive oil for garnish
- Wasa crispbread (Rye Sourdough adds a deep, nutty contrast)
Quick how-to:
Roast the beet and garlic in foil at 190°C until soft. Then blend everything to a velvety texture — pro tip: throw in an ice cube while blending to make it extra fluffy. Garnish generously and serve with crispbread for a satisfying crunch.
