That’s right..I said it..GOODbye muscles of the human body..it was fun while it lasted, but I think I’ll be seeing other people now. I took my final, and it was eassssssy peasy! No more cadaver, no more muscle models, and no more diagrams! Although it wont be a forever goodbye to my Lat’s seeing as how they help me in moving my arm to pick up any crumbs I have dropped in the process of eating. No child left behind, or crumb! During the test I thought I would make everyone a little less stressed by lifting the cadaver and pulling a “Weekend at Bernies” while dancing around the room. OK, perhaps that was too far.. Well what does any food lover do to celebrate the victorious final? Make vegan-gluten free cookies of course!
I am starting to enjoy this baking thing too much. I even thought about making cookies all night and couldn’t fall asleep..kinda weird. It doesn’t help that the Serta sheep are on vacation right meeoow. But before I get to my fantabulous cookies I will share a bit of my nosh the past few days..
Breakfasttt past three days:
In attempt to make right bagel face different than left bagel face (besides obvious lack of chia seeds) I gave right bagel face a peanut butter encrusted top hat. Both were equally delicious. They look angry..or tired..or drugged?
Lunchesss past two days:
The star veggies deserved a close up. I tried a new snack after seeing it on Katie’s blog..
If you have not yet tried the cheese with jam combo (sorry vegans) go try this now.
Workouts:
- Tuesday- 2mile run and various weights
- Wednesday- 1.5 mile walk/weights and a necessary 2.5 mile run after the cookies..my plan was to rest from any running on Wednesday, but after I ate myself into a cookie coma I had to run.
AND now..onto the good stuff..because lets face it, you guys are only here because you want to see ooey gooey chocolatey cookies and because you are being paid to read my blog.
Gluten Free and Vegan Chocolate Chip Cookies
- 2 ½ cups blanched almond flour
- ½ teaspoon sea salt
- ½ teaspoon baking soda
- ½ cup coconut oil
- 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
- ½ cup honey
- 1 cup dark chocolate chips (you best believe I put more than a cup)
- Combine dry ingredients in a large bowl
- Stir together wet ingredients in a smaller bowl
- Mix wet ingredients into dry
- Form 1-inch balls and press onto an oiled baking sheet
- Bake at 350° for 7-10 minutes
- Cool and serve
Look at the size of those chips! Bliss.

I need to start making my breakfast more fun looking. I always look down at the same brown bowl of cereal. I should make bleubs faces on top!
Bahah yes make a blueb face!
Thanks you make me so hungry! I am not saying goodbye to my muscles… they are saying goodbye to me as I eat and eat. Time for another hike! oh yes!
Hahaha thank goodness for hiking weather!
Congrats on being done!! It was such a huge relief for me when finals were over. And those cookies look delicious
A side of veggies with breakfast? I’m impressed! Also, congrats on finishing things up!
YAY! So glad your final was a piece of cake! I bet that felt good to get done
Ooohh I’m diggin the bagel face with the top hat heehee You know, I need to start making faces with my foods, they need some pizzazz!
“No child left behind, or crumb!” LOL i literally laughed out loud when i read that!
im always skeptical of vegan/gluten free cookies, i mean how can something that doesn’t have butter taste good? but those pictures up there are really persuasivee, i might make some soon. then i can eat more of them cuz they’re so healthy, 10 vegan cookies = 1 normal cookie
Seriously…these are so good!! As long as it has chocolate, it’s bound to be delicious!! And YES 10 vegan def = 1 non vegan!!
Yummmm!! To be honest, that pic of just the chocolate chips had me drooling.
Congrats on being done girl
I’ve always wanted to try the cheese/jam combo, but I’m a bit freaked by it to be honest!
I thought the same thing about the cheese, but it was so odd that it just had to be good..and it was!!
aww i am so glad u loved the cheese and jam combo- yumm! soo good!!!! congrats on being done w. that final love!
