For me, it would be a plate of sliced sopressata with some sharp cheddar cheese. Maybe with a few basil leaves and tomatoes to go with it. Plus a glass of cabernet to wash it down.
What's your perfect spread of snacks in the evening?
-
Oooh I am not a salty person in the evening. It's all about ice cream!
-
@T-Mom: agreed!
I like salty snacks throughout the day but in the evening it's all about the sweets! I usually keep a bar of dark chocolate (80% cacao) on hand and have 1-2 squares in the evening. I also like to have a warm cup of tea, chai or homemade hot chocolate.
-
Baked cheese dip with sourdough bread.
-
@mrbee: Wow, you so fancy!! I had to google "sopressata"
Are you talking about after-dinner snacks? It would be fruit (watermelon, honeydew, asian pears, or pommelos)... followed by cake or pie, haha!
-
Brie. Lots and lots of brie. Preferably St. Andre's Triple Cream. And sweet red grapes. Or sweet apples.
-
Ooooh great thread! I have been needing some after dinner snack suggestions!
-
@sweetchic: We're both really into cured meats and when we first lived together, our local grocery carried a whole range of them... so we quickly figured out which ones we liked! I read though that cured meats aren't good for you, so I had to cut back. Ugh...
Haha your love of carbs is without equal... except perhaps by my love of carbs!
-
I normally eat huge dinners so I'm stuffed beyong belief that there's usually no room for anything until breakfast time. However, if there's dessert, it's usually something sweet so ice cream, pie, froyo, etc.
-
@mrbee: Nooo... you must not really love carbs because you were able to give them up!
Me? NEVER!! Loyal til the end, carbs for life, hahaha.
-
I go for a good mix of salty and sweet... with some alcohol mixed in - he he
The first thing that popped into my head was some Cheetos (I have no idea why), but the next thing was anything having to do with peanut butter and chocolate, maybe followed up w/ some red wine (Malbec, maybe?)
-
@sweetchic: Honestly, I feel like a struggling carboholic. Every day I go to get coffee, and I just stare lovingly at the blueberry muffins. It must be really creepy for the baristas!
-
Oooh, I love late night snacks!
- Baked parmesan tomatoes
- Corn cakes with avocado-tomato relish
- Cucumber wedges with tahini-yogurt sauce
- Stuffed mushrooms
- Naan and lemon hummus
- Sharp cheddar cheese cubes
- Caprese salad bites
- Guacamole and fresh salsa with corn chips
- Stuffed tomatoes -
I don't snack much at night, but I am a chips and queso addict! And really I love any kind of chips/bread and dip. And dessert.
-
Keeping it simple with chips and salsa or roasted red pepper wheat thins as my usual go to snacks.
-
I try not to snack at night, but ultimately almost always fail
when I'm being good: Fage 0% with honey, popcorn, sliced sharp cheddar with red grapes, hard boiled egg
when I'm being bad: ice cream, cookies, cake, candy.... gahhhh
-
Skinny cow ice cream sandwiches, frozen yogurt, frozen grapes
