Add a little freshly grated carrots, orange juice and yoghurt.


• Welsh Rarebit

Mash a tablespoon of grated cheese into a smooth paste with a little milk, add a dash of white pepper, a hint of curry powder and a few drops of Worcestershire sauce.
Grill a slice of wholewheat bread on one side only , spread the mixture on the uncooked side and place under the grill until brown and bubbling.


• Sardines On Toast

Mash the sardines with a little of their own oil and a spot of paprika.


• Baked Beans On Wholewheat Toast

Open up a tin, it's that easy.


• A Baked Potato

Choose firm, medium sized potatoes, wash them thoroughly, prick them with a fork, and put them onto top shelf in an oven heated to 200º , for about 45 minutes, or until they feel crisp on the outside, with a slight give when you feel them.
Slash them half open, and serve with a big dollop of cottage cheese, one of the interesting varieties with chives or other additions.
