Recipe for November
      Barry Cunliffe is back again, with a fab, easy recipe using just three ingredients AND it’s low in calories! 
      I was hoping to make a dessert this time, but instead, I was talking to friends, and cheese came up in conversation.  I have some ‘bags’ of grated cheese and I needed to use up one or more of them. 
      So, I was thinking, cheese and biscuits! We know that, at Christmas, people (me) buy cheese boards and crackers or other biscuits, so I wanted to do something with those. 
      And CABB was born. Three ingredients. Cheese and Biscuit Bake! 
      I took about 10 or 12 Jacob’s Cream Crackers and broke them up in a bowl.  Added a whole bag of grated cheddar cheese (150 grams I think) and when they were mixed together, I added a small pot of natural yoghurt (150 grams again, I think). 
      I mixed all of this together and divided it into two small foil trays. I would recommend oiling the trays or use non-stick containers as mine stuck a bit. 
      Cooked in a preheated oven, 160C fan assisted for 25 minutes.  Removed them to cool when they were going brown on top and pulling from the sides. 
      My friend and I both thought they were really lovely. I have visions of different Christmas left-over cheeses and left-over biscuits being used up this way. Or they could be little snack items for Christmas party nibbles. 
      It is nice and firm and I will be trying a whole tray for tea with a salad.  The intention, though, is to have them cut into about six pieces per tray as a snack, not a meal. 
      Anyway, if nothing else, an effective way of using leftover cheese and biscuits! 
      Best wishes, and a Merry Christmas!
