Whats a great, quick snack to just make from stuff around the kitchen?
I'm constantly craving for snacks, and we dont always have "snack" items in our kitchen, but I'm not hungry enough to cook a meal. When can I whip together in under 5 minutes to satisfy my hunger for awhile? (I'll take your made-up recipes too!)
for instance, sometimes i just make fries with melted cheese or ranch dressing...or bread with warm alfredo sauce.
Answers:
This is quick and curbs the hunger pains for a while.
Toasted Pizzas
Make toast, then spread a lil spaghetti sauce and sprinkle cheese on top. Then microwave for about 15 seconds to melt cheese. Sometimes we add pepperoni slices to it. =0}
Strawberries and cream
Peanut Butter Crackers
Pudding (Stock up on instant mix)
Mixed fruits/Veggies
Try some smores
Rice Krispie Squares
Those are the simplest I can think of.
got tortillas? and cheese make a quessadilla...put tortilla in skillet add cheese put a tortilla on top melt like grilled cheese sandwich 2 mins. got lunch meat make grilled cheese and ham sandwich...or just slice up some cucumbers and tomatoes and dip them..
Sometimes I take leftover chicken or ground beef (from tacos or something) and sprinkle them over chips, put grated cheese on top and stick it under the broiler until the cheese melts. Quick Nachos.
I also take a can of diced tomatoes with one can of water and put it onto boil...then I add a cup of elbow macaroni, sprinkle with garlic salt and simmer until noodles are done...spoon it out into a bowl and add cheese on top to melt. Good on a cold day!
If you have tortillas laying around and a george forman grill (or pan for your stove) you can make cheese quesadillas.
I also think scrambled eggs or a one egg omlet are quick to make too.
Grilled cheese is good as well.
You can premake some tuna fish and have it with crackers when you are hungry.
Well hope these ideas help.
maybe try buying some snacks but you could try a smoothie/milkshake just pop some stuff in the blender

Salami and cream cheese is the best snack ever. I don't even like salami. I've even made it as an appetizer before with more complex apps, and my friends LOVE the salami with cream cheese.
You could have these made up and stored in the freezer and toast them when you want a snack. Fresh bread is recommended as it will roll better.
Cheese Rolls.
Spread sandwich bread with butter or margarine and sprinkle with grated tasty cheese and fold into 3.
Place under a heated grill, and toast turning when the first side is done. Spread with butter on the top and serve.
Options; add some spring onions, chives or garlic chives, spread bread with butter and Vegemite, or make with cold mince.
Options; To toast, use a sandwich press, George Foreman Grill etc.
