Yummy 3-Ingredient Organic Breakfast Cookies

Organic Breakfast Cookies (rainbow effect thanks to a crystal on my kitchen window sill)

You may already have come across these delicious breakfast cookies but thought: "hey, where's the good stuff? The sugar? The eggs? The fat?" Well, the good stuff is all in the ingredients-- this is a whole food recipe which means we aren't using derivatives, we're using the real food, and it doesn't need to be gussied up with animal products to have incredible mouth appeal (that is what fatty, sugary, salty, custard-y textures and tastes contribute). So, I say, try 'em and if you're disappointed, well, add some of the other ingredients...

COOKIE INGREDIENTS (all organic and non-GMO)

3 well-mashed Bananas
1 C. Old-Fashioned Oat Flakes
1/4 C. Chia Seed Gel

You can go with these 3-- pretty delicious by all counts-- or you can add in one or several of the following:

1/4 C. chopped Nuts (I like pecans) or Seeds
1/4 C. unsweetenened Coconut shreds
1/4 C. Raisins or dried berries, figs, apricots, etc.
1 tsp. grated fresh Ginger or 1 tsp. Cinnamon or 1/2 tsp. Nutmeg, etc.
1/4 C. Apple Sauce
Sprinkle of Celtic Sea Salt
1/4 C. Carob powder with 1 tsp. Cinnamon
?? (what did you try that isn't listed above? How did it turn out? Please tell in comments below.

INSTRUCTIONS:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F./180 C.
Combine everything until well mixed
Drop 12 cookies onto a cookie sheet covered by a silicone mat or parchment paper
Bake for 15 - 25 minutes (different preferences, different ovens)
Cool. Eat in-hand as a cookie or, as my husband prefers, in a small stack with almond milk on top (like a super-rich, sticky banana porridge). However you eat them, they are 'natural' and yummy and easy on the digestion!

Here is a link to a very interesting presentation on the nutritional status of GMOs -- explained very clearly by Dr. Thierry Vrain, a soil scientist who worked for Agriculture Canada for many years. If you are still confused about whether GMOs are over-played by the health nuts or terrifyingly justified by the Frankin-monster agro-industrialist supporters, this is a good video to watch for basic scientific understanding.

Black Bean-Kale Soup - Vegan, Gluten-Free

Today I was out doing some tentative Spring gardening (cleaning up the plot, seeding some baby lettuce). I was hanging out with our "kale trees"-- tall, gnarly tree-like plants that snake along the surface of the garden and then abruptly shoot upwards. They grow for many seasons like this. They bolt to blossom and seeds fairly early, but there are always lots of somewhat leathery, small leaves. I love these "kale trees" and decided that it was time for a kale soup-- so this Black Bean-Kale Soup was born! INGREDIENTS: 1 T. Coconut Oil (or Olive Oil) 1 Organic Onion , chopped 1 Organic Red Pepper , seeded and chopped 3 Organic Garlic cloves, chopped 2 Organic Carrots , peeled and shredded (or chopped) 1 Organic Sweet Potato (orange flesh), chopped 2 Large handsful of organic Kale , slightly chopped 2 C. "Simply Natural" Organic Tomato & Basil Pasta Sauce (or Tomato Sauce, etc.) 6 C. Filtere

Great vegan sourdough waffles These waffles are super Thank you for your kind words and compassion my friends-- except for Ed's pain in his finger, all is well. And today is sunny and hopeful! May you each have a grand day today-- be blessed! Think healing. Think success. Think peace. Think happiness. *As a person thinks, so are they. Psalm 23:7* Today we had an accidental contact with the new stove that shattered the outer glass surface (exterior to the door glass), and a few minutes after attending to that-- with sweeping and phoning re the warranty, etc. (a runaround with AI and some call centre folks with some mutual not-understanding}-- I accidentally slammed Ed's finger while pushing in a drawer. Poor guy, his nail has already turned black. and yummy. Sourdough has probiotics in it, and a lovely flavor, although the pancakes will not have quite the healthy sour taste that bread has. 1.
