Slightly Indulgent Tuesday 12/15/09

Fabulous food made healthier is what it’s all about at Slightly Indulgent Tuesday! Last week we had so many great links. If you didn’t see the Baked Pears with Oatmeal Crisp, you’ll want to. This would be a simple and healthier way to wow your guests over the holidays. And, I found a healthy way to use my left-over Christmas turkey in this Turkey Noodle Soup.

My Submission:

I made date-sweetened Sweet Potato Quinoa Cookies. They taste good enough to be dessert but if you wanted, you could eat a couple with your morning coffee. I’ve been playing around with sweeteners aside from agave and have enjoyed what I’ve learned. Dates aren’t a low-glycemic sweetener like agave but they are 100% nature-made.

Reminders:

This Thursday is Holiday Food Fest – the Dessert Edition – hosted by Jessica at Life As Mom.

WooHoo I’m first! I don’t think I’ve ever been first and I’m excited I have something that actually “fits” your theme this week.
Thanks so much for hosting!

I like the idea of this baking partnership…Karina makes it gluten free, you make it gluten AND sugar free, and the rest of us get great recipes to try!

I’ve linked to my recipe for grass-fed skirt steak with cilantro and preserved lemon gremolata…a simple a healthy meat recipe for those of us who are carnivores!

You pack so much good stuff into a short post, Amy! Yum. I’ve made my first “raw” pie. I think it would be considered raw. I’m waiting for the raw foodies to weigh in. No matter what one calls it, it’s amazingly good and good for you!

Will be back to look more later!

Chocolate chestnut fudge–one of my most favorite most things! It’s sugar free and vegan and delish.

I can’t believe I forgot to link until now. You’ve thrown me off by switching to Tuesday, but it doesn’t take much to throw me off . My submission uses home made gluten free focaccia bread which I think is healthier than anything you can buy at the store.
