Advantages: Delicious Disadvantages: Basically fat + sugar...not the healthiest choice, only for those with a sweet tooth!
If you like sweet things, then you can't get much sweeter than Baklava, which is a traditional Greek snack. My husband is completely addicted to it, but I have to ration him because, as you will see, it's not the healthiest option. But it's a lovely occasional treat. I have to admit that I "cheat" slightly by using ready-made filo pastry from Tesco, but if you are a great cook then I expect you could make some from scratch beforehand.
***Ingredients***
... ...400g pistachio nuts, coarsely chopped (can be substituted with walnuts or pecans)
1-2 teaspoons ground cinnamon (optional)
Syrup:
400g sugar
500ml water
2 tablespoons honey
Juice of half a lemon
***Method***
1. Preheat oven to 180 C / gas mark 4.
2. Mix the nuts and cinnamon together in a bowl to coat the nuts.
3. Melt the butter - the easiest way to do this is in a bowl in the microwave.
4. Liberally butter the bottom and sides of a baking ...

Advantages: It tastes yumptious. Disadvantages: You'll have to cook it.
Ack. I can't settle to anything. I've serious reviews planned, honest, I have. Times, however, are too unsettling. Challenges, or recipes, or some other such lightweight stuff are all you'll get from me at the moment, I'm afraid. Sorry! I thought you might like to try my one of my favourites. It's not what you'd call a "proper dinner", more of a weekend lunch or a late supper, hence I'm calling it a snack. It's a rather robust snack. It's delicious ... ...occasions. I call it "That Pancetta and Potato Thing". If you have any better ideas, leave me a comment. For TPaPT to serve four you'll need:
• half a dozen (that's six) medium-sized potatoes
• 250g diced pancetta
• 250ml double cream
• a whole head of garlic
• a medium-sized red onion
• twelve or so thin slices of Emmenthal cheese
• a little olive oil for frying
As ever, the method is easy.
Firstly, you need to peel and dice the potatoes. ...

Advantages: The perfect breakfast or brunch meal. Disadvantages: The Hollandaise sauce is the greatest challenge.
Sometimes, not too often, you have one of those weekend mornings when you might have a little extra time to cook yourself a real treat for a late breakfast or lunchtime snack. The next time this rare event occurs I would strongly recommend that you give serious consideration to Eggs Benedict, I promise you won't regret it. In addition to being simply delicious they also have the almost magical power of helping to banish that Saturday night hangover. ... ...you will enjoy this delicious recipe.
Before I go on, I am aware that the humble egg has had rather a mixed press in recent years. Now I think that it is due for a comeback as a healthy and protein rich food source. Scares about cholesterol and other nasties have largely been alleviated through the advent of a whole range of new varieties that are genuinely good for you. Apart from being rich in vitamins A, D, B and E they are low in calories; only ...

Advantages: They're srumptiously beautiful Disadvantages: Waiting for the margarine to soften
I’ve just screwed up my dinner so I’m reduced to Missus L McCartney’s sausage rolls and some bloody toast. I now need a healthy and nutritious meal. So I have decided to make coconut and cherry cookies (110 calories per cookie, weight watchers) and I shall most certainly NOT be making any for that ungrateful oblivious0r or the infamous and blasphemous cookie hater scgproductions. I shall make them and type this almost in real time (ie: not at all).
... ...The first thing I notice is that my daughter has pilfered the glace cherries again. So I wait until tomorrow to buy some more.
TOMORROW:
I now have all the INGREDIENTS:
125g (4oz) softened butter or margarine
75g (3oz) castor sugar
1 egg (of unspecified size so YOU decide)
150g (5oz) plain flour
½ tsp baking powder
The obligatory pinch of salt
50g (2oz) desiccated coconut
125g (4oz) chopped, dried rinsed (not in that order) glace cherries

Advantages: Easy and hard to mess up Disadvantages: Bad for calorie counters
Sorry to anyone who saw this recipe in snacks; I somehow managed to replace it with my cheese and chilli biscuits and can't put two recipes in snacks (how do I do that?).
I love this as a starter or as a lunch, it's really quick and easy to make, and most people seem to like it.
Ingredients:
-4 large tomatoes
-4tbsp double cream
-4 eggs
-4 tbsp grated Parmesan (or hard Spanish cheese such as Manchego).
- Salt and pepper
Method:
1) Hollow out the tomatoes, then leave upside down on kitchen roll to drain (about 15 mins). Be careful not to put any holes in the actual tomato 'shell' here
2) Season the inside of the tomatoes
3) Heat the oven to 180 centigrade/gas mark 4
4) Put the tomatoes in a dish ideally just big enough to take them all in one layer
5) Break on egg into each tomato, then fill up with 1 tbsp double cream and 1 tbsp ...
Advantages: none Disadvantages: it is not traditional
On searching for a recipe for Snickerdoodle Cookies I came across your offering and I am very curious to know why have you incorporated Walnuts into this recipe? They have no place in this plain simple snack cookie. Your recipe is neither traditional, cost effective nor a definitive.
It is meant to be a plain soft and chewy cookie with the flavour of cinnamon slowly building up in your mouth, the nuts particularly ones of such a dry and over powering flavour detract from this. By the way I am a lover of all nuts. I have given it one star as some sort of rating was demanded; I feel that this is too much for such a poor offering. Also another annoyance was the demand that I write a review that contains no less that 140 words, sometimes stating you case can be short informative and to the pint. ...
Advantages: Nice cookies Disadvantages: Don't put herbal medicine in though!
Good for keeping kids busy for a bit. Taste ok too.

1 tbsp. walnut extract
1/2 cup sugar
(optional)1 oz. of finely ground herbal medicine
1/4 pound (1 stick) butter
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Combine all ingredients in a large mixing bowl.

Place on a lightly greased baking tray and bake for 8 to 12 minutes, depending on how large you made your cookies. Can be cooked for a shorter time for chewier cookies, or a longer time for drier, crisp cookies. ...
