Flourless Vanilla Bean Cookies (Vegan)

Flourless Vanilla Bean Cookies.  The other day, I shared a recipe for vanilla bean dip.  It was literally one of my favorite recipe lately.

As I was eating it, I thought it would make an awesome cookie too.  So I made the dip again and baked it.  The result was delicious!

This recipe is vegan, gluten free and grain free.  I think you can definitely add in chocolate chips or white chocolate chips if you like.  That would be good!

I used cashew butter in my recipe, but it would also work with almond butter or sunflower butter for a nut-free option.

Mocha Roasted Chickpeas.  I’ve wanted to make a version of these for awhile.  So I finally got around to it and I am so glad I did.  Originally, it was just going to be chocolate, but at the last minute, I decided to add coffee extract.  They came out great!

I love this dinner idea because any veggies will work.  So you can use up leftovers in the fridge.  I served mine over cooked quinoa, but you can eat it plain too.  Serving over brown rice is another option if you want to stretch the meal out more.

If you like a little more heat, you can add a jalapeno at the same time you add the bell peppers.
