Munchies/snack ideas

Karma_

Helloooo!

I was just wondering what you lot have for munchies/snacks? There's the obvious toast, cheese on toast etc....but do you have any personalised variations of cheese on toast? (or other) Are there any other favourite snacks that suffice to your hunger pangs? Greek, Italian, Clacton-on-sea-ion, all ideas gratefully welcomed.

I am doing a food shop on Friday and would like to try different stuff. Nothing that mings though please. Ta

and here - and if the filling isnt a messy one the toastie pockets that slip into your toaster are magic - toasties cooked and kettle boiled almost together - a very quick snack

cheese and onion toasty

thats one of the favourites here

I also make two and put in packed lunches sometimes - Lad has a toaster at work and it makes a change to have something hot in the winter

I quite like banana with a little sugar sprinkled for a change

onion bagel, cut in half, topped with smoked cheese and melted under the grill, then sprinkle bacon bits on top. Bacon bits ...i think i may be still living in the 80s

That sounds lovely Fern

Are there any pates (cant do accent thing on this keyboard) that are nice? I like cheesy stuff, or chilli stuff, or any stuff

I used to like taramasalata but not enough to buy any from the deli. Low fat ideas would be helpful too (so I can eat loads)

Brussells pate is a fave of mine Karma..prefer the smooth to the coarse..but either will do really..

buy a pack of falafel
four tortillas
ready made salad
tub of yoghurt and cucumber dip

heat the falafel in the microwave (yes microwave not fried or grilled etc) then cut them in half and lay them in the wrap , salad and dip and you have a DElicious LOW fat, healthy wrap. Well the falafel isn't that low fat , or the dip, or the bread...but theres salad!!!!!!!!

I've added onion bagel, smoked cheese and bacon to my list. That sounds bloody lovely.

*bungs falafel and tortillas on list too*

I am going to try these!

that cheese and onion bagel is one of my all time best ever sandwiches you will LOVE it

11/25/092:52 PM

You can grill or fry the falafel, but its not as instant. that way you can bung it together in under a minute. I personally like the falafel soft so do it in the micro.

I like a packet of Asda's cheesy nacho's, sprinkled with a little (or lot) of grated cheese and put in the microwave for about 1 minute 30 seconds and eaten hot. The cheese has to be mature cheese and I have found that the mature grated cheese sold at Netto of all places is great for doing it.

Failing that, I like toast with lemon curd on, no butter, just lemon curd. Yep I know I'm strange!!

Nutella straight from the jar is also a favourite...or a healthy twist, grapes dipped in nutella

11/25/093:07 PM

Pinkbabe that sounds wicked too

Gyps do you think creamy garlic sauce type stuff would be nice with the falafel?

11/25/093:20 PM

Former Member

I put that first, but it was a typo. It might, I like all dips and love garlicy dip but with this the cucumber one goes really well, dont know why but i prefer it over garlic. You could try it though.

Cheese quesedas are good.

Grate cheese into a tortilla. Add hot sauce or whatever you fancy and fry on both sides.

Karma don't buy those bags, they are crap!!!

The toastie bags are quite good though it's better if you use thinner sliced bread in them.I find the thicker sliced sliced bread toasts on the outside and sometimes the cheese inside is not melted properly.
I still use the Breville toastie maker,you can get more filling in them .

Falafal (sp) is drop down fantastic. I tried it after Gyps was talking about it one night. I used a red pepper dip *drools*. I've also gone a little mad for humus(red pepper,lemon or garlic) on tomato and black pepper crackers with just a smidge of brie. OMG I am SO hungry.

Add some jalepenos and guacamole to that, my fav sinful treat

Also, bagels with mexicano cheese and fresh chopped chillis, unde the grill til the cheese melts......lush!
