Olympic-watching snacks

The Olympic Games make the perfect excuse to get in the kitchen and perfect your favourite, or previously un-tried, television-watching snacks. When the games roll around every four years, I get a bunch of friends over to catch up, eat some delicious food (no crockery required), and take in the sporting highlights. I hope you get to do the same too?

Here's a little list of some of my favourite snacks for you to make at home and enjoy over the next couple of weeks, or during this Friday's fun opening ceremony. These are all easy to prepare, and have rather a touch more je ne sais quois than a bag of crisps! Enjoy!
