I think it is important to note that quinoa is not a grain, but a seed.. Grains come from grasses; anyway, because of this it is gluten free. And! Quinoa can be used to make yummy desserts too. Check out my recipe for raw vegan oatmeal cookies, which use quinoa as the base.

Laurel,

I’ve just visited your website for the first time. Fabulous! I’d love to get more info about your classes when they’re ready. Definitely in a major food rut and could use some fresh (and easy) ideas. Kid-friendly recipes would also be very welcome. Let me know!

You forgot to mention where you get the best cookies ever from!

And I have to point out that leaving your cookie dough to rest for 30+ hours ON THE COUNTER is not a good idea, as it is loaded with eggs and dairy. Let it rest in the fridge, folks.

If I am starting with frozen butter, microwaving it is fine, but I only let it melt halfway and then stir it up so that it is an even and firm consistency. Playing with the texture of the butter is one way to change the texture of your cookies. Going for thin, spread out wonders? Use softer, almost melted butter. Like ‘em cakey? Use firm butter and an extra tablespoon or two of flour.

I actually cannot stand beets. However in a bow to my ‘new life’ and trying something different I will try the juice combo…thanks for the info.

Awesome Laurel – I love that you’re doing this!! I love to eat healthy (umm no … I love the thought of eating healthy), and I hate to cook. Anything that can make my life easier is welcome.
