The other day I got a bad craving for chocolate chip cookies, and I’m trying really hard to minimize my sugar in take again. LOL .. #problems !! I have also dedicated my Tasty Tuesday’s posts to all things pumpkin this month. So …. I created my very own pumpkin chocolate chip cookies that I could indulge in and not feel too guilty about! They turned out to be a cross between a cookie and a muffin I feel; very soft and chewy, but oh so delicious! Using sea salt and a cinnamon chocolate drizzle made them sweet and salty; it turned out to be the perfect recipe to hit…

Since February of 2017 I have realized that sugar is simply the devil. LOL. I went through a sugar detox then and changed my eating habits completely; even natural sugar.

Tasty Tuesday’s: Healthy Chicken and Veggie Skillet
I am trying to get back into eating healthier! Oh the struggle can be real sometimes! With our family it makes it even more difficult as we have some picky eaters!! (I’m sure lots of you can relate!) Last year I basically gave up sugar and limited my carbs to very little. (I’ll post about that adventure later!!) In a house where pizza, macaroni and cheese, and donuts are weekly staples (I swear my hubby is a 5 year old with his food desires!), it made it extremely difficult. I ended up just making two separate meals; one for me and one for my hubby and kiddos. It was a…
