Butter Peanut Cookies (egg-free)


I have a new recipe for egg-free cookies. I am really surprised how good they taste. This one is buttery peanut butter.


6 TB 70 calorie margarine
1/2 cup plus 2 TB of peanut butter preferably Natural
1/2 cup Splenda or = valent
2 tsp milled flax seed
1 tsp water
1 1/2 tsp baking soda
1 1/2 TB imitation low calorie mayonnaise (heaping TB)
1/3 cup nonfat dry milk powder like Sego or Carnation

Combine everything in a small to medium sized bowl
Drop by half TB onto baking pan and bake at 350 degrees F until set like a toll house cookie, 8 minutes or so.

Remove from pan carefully with a metal spatula.


Makes about 30 cookies.
45 calories ea. but only 2.5 carb. Gr.

I always like a couple of these, three if I'm famished with vanilla yogurt or vanilla yogurt with frozen berries, sugar less versions of all. It is very filling. A splurge and a great meal substitution, protein, milk and fruit all at once.

The Healthy Fellow

At healthyfellow.com you can read movie reviews and other interesting posts on healthy living or dieting techniques. All things you might like to know like the newest supplements or even old standbys are discussed by reviewers. The writer of the blog used to be a screen writer and as his second life interest he likes exploring health issues from physical, dental or common medical conditions like diabetes to mental health issues, memory enhancement or alternate therapies. There are posts of women's, men's or children's health concerns as well as popular product reviews.

Many interesting new health foods are discussed. Posts on coconut flour, chocolate, green food supplements, low carbohydrate eating and the latest in organic foods keep your attention while providing useful information. When searching for a natural health blog that is intriguingly healthful you should visit this site and visit it often.

Speaking of gluten free flours from the health food stores there is also tapioca flour, versus the pearls at the supermarket that make tapioca pudding, that are free from gluten while also having a trace of calcium in each tablespoon. Another useful product is bulk textured vegetable protein from Bob's Red Mill, gluten free, a high source of protein and valuable for those on a carbohydrate reduced or high fiber diet.

Before we forget let's say one more thing about the movie reviews. JB is discussing movies much as if he were a therapist or the writer of the script which adds great insight. This blog is a great place to go for therapies of all kinds.
