Recipe of the Week: Titanic Crackers

Running low on ideas for hump day dinner? Patch has your back with a new recipe of the week every Wednesday.

My family has made this recipe so many times that I can't be sure of the recipe's origin or the story behind the name. My personal theory is that you have to toss the crackers around in a container to coat them, the same way the Titanic was tossed about on the open waves, but create your own name or back story. These crackers are easy to "toss" together for a snack or appetizer

Titanic Crackers

Ingredients

1 box saltine crackers
1 package of dry ranch dressing mix
1 cup of canola oil
