    My Brother made me this in spain one evening but without the spinach. It was the best evening snack!!! Much better and healthier! It contains 10 times less fat than in a standard bag of crisps!

    Usually these recipes are always good but unfortunately this one didn't have much going for it. Will probably not make again as it was rather bland and uninspiring.

    I also added a small amount of chilli flakes for an extra kick and a nice bit of colour. Great little snack in the time it takes to make a sandwich : )
