My Health Journey

Ask Me!   About Me   Five Random Things   2013   Summer Goals   

A blog documenting a busy college girl's journey to a healthier life style.

Races: The Hot Chocolate Run 5k (12/9/12), The Color Run 5k (1/26/13)


wont-quit-till-im-fit-recipes:

Healthy Cookie Dough Dip
1 1/2 cups chickpeas or white beans (1 can, drained) (250g)
1/8 tsp plus 1/16 tsp salt
tiny bit over 1/8 tsp baking soda
2 tsp pure vanilla extract
1/4 cup nut butter (You can get away with using only 3 tbsp. If you use peanut butter, it’ll have a slight “pb cookie dough” taste)
up to 1/4 cup milk of choice, only if needed
Sweetener (see note below, for amount)
1/3 cup chocolate chips or sugar free chocolate chips
2 to 3 tbsp oats (or flaxmeal) (You can omit for a thinner dip.)
Add all ingredients (except for chocolate chips) to a good food processor (not blender), and blend until very smooth. Then mix in the chocolate chips.  (Some have success with a blender, but I did not. Try that at your own risk, and know the results will be better in a high-quality food processor such as a Cuisinart.)

    made this, tastes pretty good though not as good as real cookie dough. Will definitely be a low-cal option instead-...
