Next time you’re making a salad, take a flour tortilla, roll it up, and then slice it up so that you’re left with stringy tortilla ribbons. Put under the broiler until crisp, and sprinkle on top of salad. Mmmm. (stolen from Nigella Lawson)

Need a quick dessert? Buy a bag of Lindt chocolate squares and serve with ginger snaps: you can’t beat the taste sensation of the combination.
