Sounds lovely!
I guess I'd go for Finn Crisp ryebread and cottage cheese or a sliver of Les Col cheese. Or chopped up apple (must be from the fridge)!

Pinions · 16/07/2007 22:32

Cucumber sticks and homemade hummous. Sounds great though have yet to make. This always confuses me cos I always thought hummous was fattening, guess it depends how its made.

Not too keen on the finn crisp.

I prefer ryveta multigrain and No-no crackers. (And of course oatcakes).

I like oatcakes with philly and lime pickle

YUM

BBBBasilisk · 18/07/2007 10:31

marmite rice cakes with houmous and pickled chillies.

If you make your own houmus it can be healthy as you can control how much Olive Oil goes into it.

Pinions · 18/07/2007 11:28

Hummous recipes please?

OP posts:
BBBBasilisk · 18/07/2007 11:31

OP posts:
PinkMartini · 18/07/2007 12:38

Oatcakes are completely delish when smeared with pesto.

Also carrot sticks with marmite/creamcheese dip.

PinkMartini · 18/07/2007 12:39

Tahini is sesame seed paste. from Health food shops/delis/posh ingredients section of supermarket.

Pinions · 18/07/2007 12:39
