Oatmeal Raisin Carob cookies
They are soft. And not too sweet. But the raisins and carob help.

It is not your typical chocolate chip cookie.

But what it is, is good.

The best part? not only is it on my diet, it is 157 calories a piece.

Not bad for my first healthy recipe. 👱

 3 out of 4 stars!

Chicken Roma

Chicken Roma I have to say it was a pretty good day. I spent hours in the garden and then cooked a fabulous dinner. I even got to read a book! Since the hubby has been working so hard on his diet, I've been looking for really good tasting recipes that are good for you, and from scratch. This one didn't even seem to take that long (but I was doing what I love, so it may have been an hour or more). I had to share it with you so you can try this recipe! The first thing you notice is that the recipe calls for both chicken breast and chicken thighs. I don't think I've seen one like that before. You cook the chicken first in olive oil until browned and then take them out of the pan to rest. Of course I ran OUT of olive oil, and by the way, if you turn your back on it, olive oil smokes. A lot. So I supplemented the olive oil with cooking oil. It was fine, and I didn't burn the oil. Whew! Chicken browned on left. Prosciutto and garlic on the right. See

COVID-19 Virus Shutdown, Day 53

Before breakfast, I punched down the sourdough that was now more than doubled. Then I pushed it into a wide flat shape and rolled it up, tucking it into a loaf pan. I let it sit until after the lunch time baking was done. For lunch we made khachapuri. This was my friend's recipe I mentioned earlier. Since my stand mixer was in the dishwasher I used the breadmaker to mix the dough. When it was ready I asked if the kids wanted one of the dough balls to make their own. Here is what each of us did. Son made cheeseless pizza (upper left) I made cheese with butter and green onions (bottom right) This one will get the egg The one on the left is cheese and butter only The one on the right is cheese and brown sugar (it kept unfolding!) Daughter did something even more different, she made what could be described as a brown sugar cinnamon calzone I couldn't get a photo of the pizza one baked because son grabbed and ate it before I had a chance to snap one. The gr

COVID-19 Virus, Day 138

I haven't had much to say lately.  I'm diving deep into why I eat more than I should. I'm taking this online course through Daily OM to learn how to communicate better. You know, once I have something to say.  I bought a shirt that says "Warning Starving Dieter May Bite If Provoked".  I'm taking my martial arts classes, getting into the groove of that.  This week I made tacos.  This is how I do it.  From the top: Paprika, garlic powder, chili powder, onion powder, cumin, and salt on a pound of hamburger.  Chop and cook. Serve with tortillas, tortilla chips, tomatoes, sour cream, cheddar cheese, and lettuce. Sometimes guacamole.  But you gotta get the restaurant style white tortilla chips. Heaven! Today I made chicken and dumplings by request.  First you par cook the chicken.  Which just means cook it til brown on the outside in butter in a pot.  Then I took these out and added chopped onion, celery (out of my garden!) and carrot.  This is mire poix.  Add the c
