Cleanse

I started a cleanse today. Today's smoothie recipe (all organic):

2 cups of water

3 kale pieces

Large handful of spinach

Half a frozen banana

5 Frozen mango pieces

Spoonful of honey

1 T flax power

1 T chia seeds

Blend in Vitamix

Yum! 

Vegan Thumbprint Cookies

When I first made these cookies I thought they were vegan and gluten free but then I was informed that spelt flour is not gluten free. Good to know. Anyway, I have been experimenting with gluten free and vegan recipes. It can be kinda frustrating but also rewarding when something comes out yummy. I still prefer butter loaded chocolate chip cookies though.

Vegan Thumbprint Cookies :

Preheat oven at 350 degrees.

Mix together:

1 cup spelt flour

1 cup quick rolled oats

1 cup coconut flakes

Whisk together:

1/2 cup maple syrup

1/2 cup coconut oil (a little less is okay)

Stir liquids in with solids and once fully combined form dough into medium/small balls.

Place on cookie tray that is lined with parchment paper.

Indent the center of the cookie and add a small spoonful of your favorite jam.

Bake for 20 minutes. 

ENJOY!!
