Chocolate Chip Cookie Recipe


Groceries:
Eggs (for husband), Bitchin Sauce, hummus and strawberries from the Farmer's Market. My husband was with me so, more dips than usual haha
Indulgences! The ice cream sandwiches are kinda meh but the popcorn, chocolate and chips are favourites of mine. Oh and the red two buck Chuck. I'm trying the Green Fin tonight. Found both using Barnivore. 
Bought too much processed food but only ate the spring rolls and faux chicken (with  my husband) and a bit of the cheese. so I guess that's not too bad for a week.
Groceries this week were from Trader Joes.

Food prep:
Walnut banana muffins, black bean falafel, quinoa, quinoa salad and homemade granola (used a basic recipe from the Forks Over Knives cookbook but added walnuts, almonds, raisins and freeze dried raspberries)

Breakfast:
Homemade granola (so delicious) with coconut milk
Oatmeal with blueberries, peanut butter and homemade strawberry jam.
Quinoa with almond milk, pecans, blueberries and goji berries.

Lunch/snacks:
I hadn't had Chipotle in so long! This is my usual order, veggie bowl with black beans, brown rice, corn, mild salsa, lettuce and guacamole.
Pita bread and hummus from the farmer's market, black bean falafel and quinoa salad
Tried a different bread (pictured above with the groceries) and I really like it. I generally buy Ezekiel or FoodforLife Rice Almond... or make my own.
Cherry smoothie
Chiptole again! I treated a friend to lunch for taking me to an appointment and we got this after. This location had a new vegan option, a shredded marinated tofu. It was delicious! A bit heavy for the bowl though so next time I will ask for less or do tacos/burrito. I know my husband would love it too.
Rainbow chard wraps and a protein smoothie

Dinner:
Tacos with black beans, cabbage, kale, sweet potato etc
Kale chips, wild rice, bell peppers, onions, black beans and hummus
Trader Joes vegan sprint rolls, stir fry and dipping sauce.
Super tasty eggplant parm and asparagus.
Archer Farms pizza crust topped with marinara, avocado, mushrooms, spinach, olives, Boca burger and Trader Joes vegan cheese.

Dessert:
"Frosty". 10-15 ice cubes, 2 tbsp cocoa powder, 1/4 banana and as much almond milk as needed
Definitely a favourite recipe for chocolate chip cookies.
Combine 2 cups almond flour, 1 3/4 cup all purpose flour (I used gluten free), 1 tsp baking soda, 1 tsp salt, 1/2 cup maple syrup, 1/2 cup melted coconut oil and 1/2 cup chocolate chips. Add spoonfuls to a greased baking sheet and cook for 10min at 375F.

  1. Yum that homemade granola looks divine. I've never had a sweet quinoa dish before but I'm really curious to try it now. You eat so healthy! I love it, you're giving me all these great ideas now. haha I really want to try that Frosty recipe now and those cookies look delish. Can you use oat flour in place of the spelt flour?

    1. Thanks! I think oat flour would work. I know using all almond flour works! :)
