Bread Fritters;
Go to the bakery section of the store where you normally buy bread!.
Ask the baker for an "unbaked" loaf of bread!.
He must put exactly the same amount of dough he would have used to bake a bread with in to a plastic bag for you, and it would cost no more than a loaf of bread!.

Take that home and in a pot warm some cooking oil to about half the depth of the pot!. (Smaller pots take less oil than bigger ones do)!.!.!.
The oil temperature should be medium hot!. (About half the heat that the stove plate will go)

Now cut from the unbaked dough a slice about the size of your palm, and with a little water on your fingers (to prevent the dough from sticking to your hand), stretch out the dough in all directions until it is about the size of your whole hand including the fingers!. That brings the cutting of dough to about twice the size it was when you cut it!.!.!.!.

Now with care, drop the stretched out dough in to the hot oil!.
It would rise almost instantly!.
Fry it in the oil until it is golden brown all over, taking care to turn it over occasionally!.
It would be puffy and crisp when done!.

With a large ladle or sieve, scoop out the bread fritter and place on an absorbent kitchen towel to rid it of most of the oil still on it!.
Repeat this process until all the dough is done!.

These bread fritters are extremely filling, and can be cut open and filled with almost anything from grated cheese to minced meat to cold processed meat, syrup or jam!.
Try it, you will probably have some left over for two or three days, which you can take to work if you like!.!.!.!.
Bread fritters can be frozen and warmed up again if you have made too much, but the dough cannot, so rather make the whole lot and freeze what is left over for another day!. If you decide to freeze them, do so without a filling!. Fillings should always be made fresh!.

I have been to many a diet class so listen to the expert, they say the key to it is to eat little but often get a dish or cereal but have a small dish, for dinner have a jacket potato with beans or something and for tea, meat and veg you can never have too much veg or fruit try not to eat after 8 at night, and if you do have fruit or something!.

I should listen to my own advice go on holiday in may and want to be super skinny but cant resist bad food!Www@FoodAQ@Com

Scotsmen are the basic dietary of most loch monsters and although they are staple enough there is a bitter after taste!.

Make some Taco Boats!.

Get some WonTon Wraps from your local grocery store!. They usually hang in the produce isle near the Tofu!. They come 60 to a package!.

I can make about 48-50 of these with two pounds of ground beef!.

Brown your ground beef ( 1-2 pounds) with chopped sweet onion (large or small)!. Drain and add the dry Ranch Dressing mix (1 pkg!. for 1 lb!. 2 for 2 lbs!.)!. Stir in well!.

While your meat is coking take the Wonton Wraps and place them individually in a muffin tin to bake and form a small bowl!. Transfer them to a cookie sheet after you finish baking them!.

Spoon in your meat mixture to each bowl and add grated cheddar cheese to the top!. Place them back in the oven to melt the cheese slightly!.

Toppings can range from sour cream, guacamole, shredded lettuce, chopped tomatoes, corn, chopped green onions and salsa of course!.

They are fun to make and more fun to eat!. And believe me they will disappear so don't think you can make to many!Www@FoodAQ@Com
