Saturday the 12th was very busy with different types of foods.   I ended up going to a fabulous Mexican lunch with two girlfriends.   We spent the time chowing on the chips and salsa and then I finished my lunch before the other two were even close.   I am going to blame that on the fact that I have two little people at home and rarely am I able to eat in peace so I shove the food in like a female wolf.   We also spent the time talking over all the benefits fo getting older...NOT!   I did not take a photo of the luncheon as I believe chips and salsa stained shirts would not be appreciated by anyone.

I did come home being completely stuffed and did not even make dinner.    I had a sweet tooth later on and decided to give this recipe a try from PALEOMG.com.    It looked like a healthy chocolate chip cookie recipe and everyone loves chocolate chip cookies.    PALEO in case you are not familiar is not dairy, grains, sugars, processed foods, legumes, etc, it is called the Caveman Diet.     For people who have thyroid issues it is suppose to be very beneficial so I thought I would give some recipes a try.   It is Almond Butter, Dark Chocolate chips, 1 egg and some salt, baking power, baking soda and some vanilla.

Well let me tell you this was a really good cookie!   Calories is very close to the original chocolate chip because Almond Butter is not calorie free, but no flour at all.   Even my husband who enjoys the not good things to eat said he would eat this cookie again it was good.     I am going to make smaller cookies next time and sneak them to my children because they won't even know.     Going to try and health up this house a little with some smarter choices.    I am hoping Kale Chips are a big hit, but I will have to bribe the older two to even try them.   Here's to the New Year and some healthier choices.
