What would be a great and healthy snack to make from scratch?

Q. Just tired of wasting money buying junk food and would like some very interesting recipes so I can start by saving lots of money. By making great and healthy snacks from scratch.

A. You could make some granola. Look online for many different recipes and pick out what you like. I like sites like Gourmet, Bon Appetit, and Epicurious.

Pinwheel sandwiches are good. Spread flour tortillas with a mixture of cream cheese plus finely diced veggies like bell peppers, squash, cucumbers, a little fresh herb like thyme or parsley, salt and pepper. Don't quite go to the edges when you spread it. Then roll it up, wrap in plastic wrap for an hour or more to keep the shape. Unwrap from the plastic and cut into slices.

You could mix the cream cheese with salsa and then wrap it for another version.

Tuna or chicken salad on endive or romaine leaves.

Enjoy.
