+1 The other requirment is not to much (if any) washing up afterwards Generally Tea and either biccies or toast if late at night If its just "I have the munchies" the what ever leftovers I have can normally be turned into something

To my mind, a snack is something that leaves a packet and enters my pie hole without intervening preparation or thought. So, biscuits or crisps.

Maybe be we should have a 'what is a snack' thread as we clearly all have very different views on the matter

TBH, "Tuna Mousse" sounds absolutely disgusting; yet, your recipe for the same looks very tempting.

That does sound very nice but how much, (using "proper" measurements please  ) is a "tab" of mayo?

Tab is tablespoon. It's one of those recipes where you don't have to be exact, it is very hard to muck up. I tend to cook by instinct rather than measuring scales.

OK, that makes sense. I'll try and get round to making this, (probably on Monday) and let you know how it goes.

Try it - absolutely gorgeous! My boyfriend was the same until he tried it now he scoffs any left overs before I get a chance to get at them! Great as a supper, starter or a 'snack'. I also make Tuna pie by mixing a tin of tuna and some sweetcorn in 3/4 pint of cheese sauce and making sure it's warmed though. Place in an oven proof dish and top with mashed potato and grill until brown.
