Avocado Ginger Canapés
What you need:
8 ginger snaps
1 ripe avocado
4 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil, divided
2 tablespoons pine nuts
What you do:
1. Mash avocado with 3 tablespoons of the olive oil.
2. Spread the paste on each ginger snap, and then drizzle the remaining oil over the top.
3. Sprinkle pine nuts on top and enjoy.
It sounds too simple to taste nice, but I find this combination is excellent. Would also be quite good for weight gain, I'd imagine, but you'd have to eat more than just 2. Use only the best quality and the flavors really blend to make a very unusual but delicious appetizer.

SO HOW'D IT GO?
to Yidam: i'd compare them to spekulaas (if you are in Holland) that's the most similar thing probably... any kind of ginger type cookie will do i'm sure.
To Yidam, ginger nuts/snaps are a type of biscuit, they are quite crunchy and have a warm, gingery taste to them.
I got no idea what ginger snaps /nuts are. can anybody explain this to a european? ;)
