Easy Vegan Nut Butter Chocolate Chip Oat Protein Bars
There are ALL KINDS of protein bar recipes on the Internet. Many of them included some form of highly processed protein powder which can be REALLY pricey, especially if you are on a budget. I created this recipe because I wanted a healthy protein bar that was easy to make, healthy AND delicious and budget-friendly. This recipe is a whole food dish and is gluten-free, refined sugar-free, soy-free. Chances are you already have all the ingredients to make this in your cupboards. So let's get started!!!
Flourless Edible Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough
Who says you can't have cookie dough for breakfast?!?!?
Or lunch or dinner or for a snack I love cookies, cookie dough, you know all the things! This cookie dough is not only safe to eat it is high in protein, packing a whopping 13 grams to help keep you full longer. And unlike other edible cookie dough recipes on the internet, this one is low-fat.
No Bake Low-Fat Peanut Butter Pie
Why I created this recipe
Years ago I worked in an assisted living facility and this pie was a regular on their menus. It was so good and rich and very high in fat! Then I had my gall bladder removed and would drool every time they served it because I couldn't eat it anymore. So I got busy in my own kitchen and created this decadently rich, yet low-fat version of this mouthwatering dessert! It's so good everyone will want the recipe when you serve it! It's the perfect ending to a delicious meal at home, church pot lucks, and holiday dinners. Pie and coffee? YES PLEASE!
Printable Recipe Card Template For Blogger
I wrote this tutorial after I successfully designed, uploaded and linked my own printable recipe card for my blog on Blogspot/Blogger. Blogspot/Blogger doesn't have a widget for plug-in for making printable recipe cards and trying to find one online is nearly impossible unless you want to pay a monthly fee, which I don't. So, I set out to design this template that could be editable, sharable and printable. It does take some added work to put a recipe together in the template and then get it linked to a printable document and then added to your blog. But, don't worry, I will walk you through all of the steps. It may seem like a lot at first, but once you have done a few recipes using the template, it will become second nature to you and a pretty quick process to get a printable recipe card uploaded onto your blog. So, grab some tea or coffee and let's get started!

Why dates are the base of this pudding
I have always been a fan of ANYTHING chocolate. When I made diet changes a few years ago my need for low-fat foods that limited dairy and refined sugars eliminated a lot of choices for me. Sure I could use prepackaged convenience foods, but most of the time those are a ladened with chemicals and preservatives. So, when I discovered that dates have a very rich, smooth consistency when blended I got the idea to experiment and this pudding was one of my first creations!
Basic Gluten-Free Pizza Crust
Gluten Free Soft Flour Tortillas
When I was exclusively gluten-free a few years back it was one of the hardest diet changes I had ever made because gluten is in practically everything. And it can be hidden with weird names so unless you are doing a ton of research you would still be eating it without even knowing it. But for me that wasn't even the hardest part. As time when on l learned what to look for in ingredients. For me the hardest part was actually making some of the food.
