• Avocado.
• Red pepper and goats cheese.
• Pesto and lemon.
• Hummus with sliced beetroot.
• Cheese with chopped grapes.
• Peanut butter and chopped banana.
• Crushed peas with mint.
• Mashed chickpeas with lemon.

We also must not forget the Staffordshire Oatcake, a cheap and versatile treat that is cheap to buy, these can be filled with sweet or savoury fillings.  

Hints and Tips 

• Why not swap the ingredients to make new recipes that meet your tastes or dietary requirements.
• Get the whole family involved, everyone is more likely to taste and eat new foods if they help to create the meals.
