Monday Recipes…

May 18, 2015

I had a terribly lazy weekend…I mean Lazy. It was fantastic! I did manage to go shopping with the bestie to get a new birthday dress and I am very very excited to wear it.

I have been trying to get my ass back on the low-carb cooking all my meals path I veered off a few months ago! So I went to the trusty old Pinterest for some recipes I am planning to try!

 
 
 
 
There is a lot of cheese in most of these…which is funny since I am lactose intolerant but that is what those lactaid pills are for! I have to buy them in bulk (thank you costco!) 
Do you have any favorite low carb recipes???

Tasty Tuesday on Thursday….

February 20, 2014

Since I used Tuesday to announce my blogiversary giveaway…which you should check out if you haven’t already I thought I might post my tasty recipe today instead!

(I ended up eating a few before I got a good photo) 

Ingredients: 
3/4 C. unsalted butter
3/4 C. brown sugar
1/4 C. granulated sugar
1 egg
2 tsp vanilla
2 C of flour
2 tsp cornstarch
1 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt(I used sea salt)
1 C Kraft Caramel bits(or in my case cut up pieces of caramel)
1/2 C crushed pretzels

Preheat oven to 350° F. In a bowl beat sugar and butter until fluffy, add egg and vanilla. Then mix in cornstarch, baking soda and salt. Stir in chocolate chips, crushed pretzels and caramel. *The dough will be chunky and look kinda dry. Spoon onto baking sheet and sprinkle with salt & pretzel. 


Bake 8-10 minutes or until they start to get gold around the edges but don’t over cook. 

Then enjoy! They are seriously so delicious!
