Strawberry Chia Jam on Homemade Chocolate Ice Cream #loriinthekitchen #healthydesserts

The strawberry jam I made is good for sauce on ice cream too. Win, win! For on my homemade breakfast bagels and ice cream. The chia seeds give me energy in the morning. 

Recipes

This is so yummy and easy. I used my homemade graham crackers that I used coconut sugar and some coconut oil in place of some of the butter where I wanted it lighter for my stomach. and this dish called for more butter in the crust. I also didn't add any extra cinnamon on top when I made the graham crackers (recipe below).  I usually will put at least a third of coconut oil instead of butter when I'm baking. I think it's lighter on my stomach and ads taste. I used my homemade yogurt made with Wolfgang Puck's bread machine and strained some for about 30 minutes to get a greek yogurt consistency. Hershey's sugar free chocolate chips that gave a bang is what I used. I just used unsweetened cocoa powder that was $1.99 from Walmart. This is so DELICIOUS!

New Homemade Banana Ice Cream #loriinthekitchen #bananaicecream #alternativeingredients

 2-3 fresh slice bananas (about 1/2 -3/4” slices)

2 tablespoons honey

1/8-1/4 c. almond milk

2 tablespoons honey

New bananas ice cream: 2-3 sliced fresh bananas, 2 tablespoons of honey 1/8th-1/4 c. almond milk. Push sliced bananas down firmly to pack them in a container but not so much that you can’t stir the honey and almond milk into them. Add the other ingredients in stirring them. The honey will settle but don’t worry about it. Freeze container for 24 hours. Blend or churn in your favorite ice cream maker. I use the smoothie bowl setting on my Ninja Creami.

Spicy White Bean Chili

 Found Cooking Classy with this spicy, earthly cumin, paprika, oregano, coriander, and cayenne pepper that connect to your senses, along with the Serrano chili peppers I used. I added extra beans and chicken. Don’t worry about the extra liquid. It’s so good you can drink it. Cooking Classy #womenstationchannel #healingfood

Paleo Chocolate Chip Cookies with Homemade Sugar Free Chocolate Baking Chips and Homemade Hot Chocolate #lorijeanfinnila #cooking #healthyfood

 I've been looking forward to using coconut flour and almond flour together. Most recipes call for a very small amount of coconut flour and a lot of eggs. Not this one. I also made homemade chocolate chips by melting a store bought bar (Eco dark 2.65) and adding a tsp of coconut oil and 1 a tablespoon of honey. It was sweetened perfectly and the best chocolate chunks I feel. I used half unsalted dairy butter and 1/2 coconut oil for the coconut oil. I also used parchment paper which I love. So much easier.

Recipe for the Cookies

Homemade Sugar Free Chocolate Chips to Bake with (No more melty, soggy baking goods with the ones I've been making from cocoa powder and coconut oil.) ( I may leave the oil out next time so they're not as melty - still really tasty.)

Hot Chocolate Recipe (Really yummy sugar free hot chocolate. I used 1% dairy milk.)
