Blue Cheese Chips Recipe
Recipe
Ingredients
1/2 lb (8 ounces) blue cheese, 1 broken into small pieces 8 tbsp (1 stick) butter or 1 margarine, softened 2 cup all-purpose or rice flour 1/4 cup buckwheat groats or chopped 1 toasted nuts of your choice 1/4 tsp pepper 1/4 cup milk
Recipe
Preparation
"These "blue chips" are definitely a good investment that produce profitable returns in the form of compliments from all who try them. The texture is light and lacy, and the blue cheese flavor mellows with baking. Try serving them with a dry white wine. 305~F. 20 to 25 minutes Preheat the oven to 350~F. Cream the butter and cheese together in the food processor, or in a large bowl using a pastry blender or two kinves. In another bowl, stir together the flour, buckwheat groats or nuts (if desired) and pepper. Add the flour mixture to the butter-cheese mixture and blend well.
Blend in the milk, little by little, to form a dough that will hold together in a cohesive ball. The dough should be quite stiff. Divide it into 2 equal portions for rolling. On a floured surface or pastry cloth, roll out to about 3/16 inch thick. Cut into 1-1/2-inch circles and place on an ungreased baking sheet, making sure the edges do not touch. Prick each cracker in 1 or 2 places with the tines of a fork.
Bake for 15 minutes, turn, and bake for an additional 5 to 10 minutes, or until medium brown. Yield: 130-40.
Servings:

Food Tips of the Week
Dieting made easy
One useful tip is to drink plenty of water. From time to time at some stage in a hectic morning, you guess that you want a snack but in fact you might just need a refreshing glass of water or orange squash. The feelings of needing food and needing a drink are quite similar, but one of the two can lead to a broken diet and the other is ok.
The argument against low carb diets
Its all the rage, but it is truly safe for you?
Remember, one fact that is frequently overlooked, it is very hard (although not technically impossible) for vegetarians to follow a low carbohydrate diet.
Many scientific studies over recent years have proved that high consumption of animal fat can lead to higher chance of cancer, heart problems and other major health problems.
Lycopene super foods
(includes apricot, red bell peppers & rosehip)
The nutrient lypcopene is a naturally occurring chemical compound and a member of the same group of phytochemicals as carotene. Lycopene is accountable for the red color of quite a few natural foods.
Usefully, unlike most other nutritional compounds, this useful phytochemical does not degrade if cooked, but is noticeably increased in efficacy by cooking.
.
Lycoprene's most valuable health contribution is that it is an antioxidant and appears to be an asset in the battle to lower the risks of developing cancer.
This useful phytochemical is the most potent fighter of singlet oxygen, which is correlated with skin aging. It's also believed to slow down the growth of atherosclerosis.
