It feels strangely liberating to not have to use capital letters for proper nouns and at the beginning of sentences. My schoolteacher's would be so upset. I had to go back and correct myself on Bob's thread last night as i posted things without thinking and as usual had many errors. Whoops! must be good.
I don't always correct myself. I must admit answering on a forum, is a little like 'Stream of consious-ness' we reply as we think.Blackadder: Am I jumping the gun, Baldrick, or are the words 'I have a cunning plan' marching with ill-deserved confidence in the direction of this conversation?

Make your own crisps Kit-wafer thin slices of veg- season them with chilli, or salt and pepper. If you spray them with spray light and put them on a tray in the oven, you can satisfy your cravings and have a healthy frugal snack for pennies :)xBlackadder: Am I jumping the gun, Baldrick, or are the words 'I have a cunning plan' marching with ill-deserved confidence in the direction of this conversation?

How long do you cook them for Bobster?
My oven is a fan oven so they tend to cook very quickly- (about 20 mins). You can buy trays apparently to put them on- i have seen some at a reasonable price in B&M bargains.
I usually have the oven on 180-200
Veg i have used-turnip( i do like them) potatoes( the skins can be nice, but make sure they are well scrubbed) Carrots or any hard root veg really. One of my friends uses beetroot- not my fav i have to say.
I have flavoured with chilli sprinkles, garlic salt( healthy alternative kit) i also have low sodium salt in and cracked pepper.
So far no complaints and it makes a large amount. When you think a bag of crisps is the weight of an average small potato- well you can see the mark up.Blackadder: Am I jumping the gun, Baldrick, or are the words 'I have a cunning plan' marching with ill-deserved confidence in the direction of this conversation?

I will try them at the weekend.
Oh my gosh i eat, (attempt to eat really as I don't ever complete theom) a turnip once a year. I would love to try this. Susan suggested it too.
I will get my bottom back i promise.Aiming for a minimal spend 20220
