What is your favorite snack food?

For me it would be cheese curds, pepperoni, summer sausage, dried apricots, dill pickles and nuts (not all together or in any order). I'm not too big on chips or sweet things.

 

I loooove pizza chips. I've yet to find pizza chips I don't like, but currently, these are the ones available to me:



I also love cheese and crackers, grilled cheese sandwiches, Cheez-Its...I really like cheese. I'm not a big fan of most chips or cookies or fruit candies, myself. I don't have a big sweet tooth.

 

Claussens pickles. Mmm, I snack on those when I'm looking to fill a craving. They're the ultimate.
Or, some colby jack slices on club crackers.

 

beef jerky, almonds, cashews, cottage cheese and crackers, cheese, meat and crackers,

 

anything covered in peanut butter!

 

I almost forgot, I looove apple slices covered with peanut butter.

 

Oh my god, yes...claussens and clubs...

 

peperoni, flaming hot Cheetos, mixed nuts, pizza rolls, occationally chips (but more so when I was a smoker), hmmm... I think that is all I got.

 

totally depends on my mood, but i love all types of foods. i really love middle eastern foods, too, and so i'm always happy when i learn to make something new to me and it comes out BETTER than what you get at more or less authentic restaurants.

when at a restaurant i usually prefer good falafel over kafta, but today at the store i got stuff to make kafta, and it came out simply wonderful, and this may soon become one of my favorite dishes to make. i looked up a bunch of recipes online, and they are largely similar but due to the vast area of the earth in which different varieties of this dish occur, the recipes vary tremendously. this one came out very nice and it slightly spicy without it being overwhelmingly so.

i already posted about this at another forum and put up the recipe, so i'll save the effort and copy and past most of that post, excluding what is irrelevant based on what i just said

although only a small amount is used, the cinnamon is all important, and adds an absultely spectacular layer to the flavor.

i made mine all beef, though lamb is better meat, and combinations of the two are very common.

like i said, every recipe i've seen for this is different, so feel free to play around with it. some recipes call for mint instead of or in addition to parsley, but i omitted that. also, in addition to or instead of cinnamon, similar spices like nutmeg, clove, or allspice can be used. if it were not for an issue of funding, i'd have used a teaspoon of allspice, nutmeg, and cinammon combined.

many recipes do not call for the chili powder or red pepper, but i like the little bit of heat in these.

i like the addition of the egg, but it is optional and most recipes i've seen omit it.

~~~~~~~

ingredients:
2lbs. ground beef, ground lamb, or a combination of the two (more lamb is better)
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 medium onion, chopped finely
1/2 bunch parsley, chopped finely
1 tsp red (cayenne) pepper
1/2 tsp cumin
1/2 tsp paprika, smoked is okay
1/2 tsp black pepper
1/3 tsp cinnamon
1/4 tsp chili powder
1 egg

in a large mixing bowl, knead the ground meat to get as fine and mushy as possible.

add all other ingredients and knead like bread until everything is well mixed and more or less homogeneous.

roll into cigar/football shaped lumps made from about a quarter of a hanful of the mixture at a time and broil for roughly 10 minutes, turning halfway through cooking time. alternatively, form on skewers into what amount to essentially long, casingless sausages. if using wood/bamboo skewers, soak the skewers for half an hour or more before use. broil these kebabs, or cook them on the grill.

the one i made was the long variety, and i broiled it on a skewer supported by the sides of a baking pan. because it was on a skewer but elevated, it sagged down and no matter how i positioned it the heaviest part was on the bottom, so the top cooked a bit more than the bottom, but it was cooked through and delicious. if broiling the kebabs, use a cookie sheet or some foil or something else so you can set them down and support them, and turn them halfway through the cooking. if grilling, the grill should support it well enough to maintain an even shape.

kafta is also good served on a sandwich in a manner similar to falafel, with salad and a creamy sauce like tahini or tzatziki. it is commonly served with a combination, a salad made of equal volumes of chopped cucumber and tomato and some lemon juice, and garlic. also a generous supply of plain yogurt to get a smooth, creamy, cooling quality. mix it all well, and use it very slightly chilled to dress the kafta sandwich. add some parsley or lettuce and you've got one of the best sandwiches in existance. you can also sandwich the meatball/football shaped smaller types on a skewer with vegetables and grill or broil it that way, rather than making the longer variety more often seen on skewers by itself. the presentation of a layered skewer is wonderful, but personally i think like items should go on the same skewers by themselves and just served together, as different meats and vegetables cook at different rates. but when it comes down do it, i love cooking them either way

 

tings.

 

That stuff looks pretty good.

I prefer salty snacks over sweet ones definitely.

 

I also love fishes because they're so delicious!

 

Cheap nachos at 7-11 (only cause they closed them all here and now I want them...), french fries, cheese.

Mainly french fries.

 

oh, i forgot...pussy
and watermelon

 

nachos... :drool5:

That's something I haven't had in a long time.

 

both excellent choices!

 

I like nachos but I'm picky about chips. I like El Milagro or Xochitl chips with jack cheese.

favorite snacks are hummus and pretzels or triscuits
boiled edamame
any cheese, esp colby, brie, havarti, mozzarella
corn tortilla with provolone melted in the toaster oven with a claussen dill spear and romaine lettuce (prob my fav snack ever)
broccoli and carrots
cherries, blueberries, raspberries, blackberries, clementines
apples with peanut or better yet almond butter
rice with butter and salt
chips and homemade salsa verde
raw almonds

yep. I love snacking. half the time I don't eat real meals, I just snack all day.

 

okay, yeah, i'm making another one. but no more after this, cause i have to save the rest for a couple dinners

 

I'm with whoever said the 7-11 nachos. I love those. Also, pizza rolls, iced soy lattes, almonds, cereal.

 

Eat the pussy like you eat the watermelon.
