Almond Blondies

4/25/2016

0 Comments

 
Yesterday afternoon I found myself with a couple of hours of free time....yes this did happen, and it is rare. My kiddos were out playing, and I was really unmotivated to do any actually housework (although it does need it). So to avoid any REAL work, I decided to get creative in the kitchen. I was also craving something sweet! 

My original idea was brownies, but seeing as I did have enough unsweetened cocoa powder to do any good, Blondies seemed like the next best idea. (I have a love affair with brownies, and was really hoping to master a good black bean PCOS brownie yesterday...next time).

    Nutrition is the Foundation of Health

    Here you will find recipes that I have personally tested and that fit with my idea of a healthy diet. I like to follow the teachings of Dr. Weston A Price, but know that it can be difficult. So, many of these recipes follow the Weston Price Foundation view of nutrition and others are a jumping off point for those trying to incorporate new and healthy recipes into their diet.
