OATS? Oats just make me hungry an hour later.

[Deaf Smith]

I did not know if you had previously posted a review and were the one that kicked open the stall door.

[Veto!]

“Liquid bread” is a memorable description. I don’t like beer. I don’t like pizza or chocolate either. Though I did swill a Corona beer in honor of the corona virus at Labor Day picnic. One was enough.

“Healthy Snacks “

I eat a lot of poke, but that would make most easterners gag.

[Jane Long]

Glad you saw the humor in that, as well :-)

[Inyo-Mono]

Glad to read that eggs are good for you. I eat lots of them, scrambled, hard boiled, etc.

[9YearLurker]

Waxy potatoes aren’t so high on the index.

If you’re not choosing your powder wisely, you’re consuming processed food and negating all rationale for health.

The cited powder is unhealthful.

[logi_cal869]

Glad to see some sanity here on food.

[logi_cal869]

Haribo? Those’ll do it!!!

2 things:

You’re more than right. Farmed fish are LOADED with antibiotics, plus the fact that farmed salmon is gray, not pink. A patented chemical is added to their feed - which is FAR from their natural diet, which results in a distinct fat banding to differentiate between farmed & fresh - to turn the flesh pink.

If you’re eating Pacific seafood, you’re exposing yourself to potential radionuclides.

I no longer consume either.

Everything in moderation, but that being said, I had to quit eating 99% of everything on the list. Too many carbs and besides, I have no control! :-(

[Jamestown1630]

Sugar-free gummies probably contain alcohol sugars (like Xylitol.)

They can cause bowel...effects.

Just make yourself some good bran-muffins.

[Bob434]

yup- I figure i can either be healthy and miserable because i can’t eat the things i really love, or i can be happy and maybe die a year or so early, while having enjoyed the foods and drinks i like while i lived-

I suppose if one tried real hard to like ‘good for you stuff’ they could almost truly enjoy eating that stuff- maybe, but I’m not gonna risk it- I’m Sticking with my bacon and soda and cake, and steak diet

[Bob434]

[[I had wild shot buffalo for dinner.

How did he look in formal dinnerwear?]]

Exactly like you’d expect- a Real Ham

[Truthoverpower]

I do all of these !!

Also.

Green shake

Mixed greens.

Espresso !

[Mariner]

It’s very close to my weekly list.

But I don’t eat much oats, opting for whole wheat muffins with dried fruit, EVOO and nuts instead.

I even fry my eggs in EVOO.

For those whining about carbs, you will eat some. Even if you are temporarily constraining them. And there ARE healthy carbs.

So get up off your lazy ass, exercise and enjoy a natural diet.

My diet doesn’t vary much because I choose to eat healthy.

Cowboy Cookies

1 ¼ cups (6 1/4 ounces) all-purpose flour
¾ teaspoon baking powder
½ teaspoon baking soda
½ teaspoon salt
1 ½ cups packed (10 1/2 ounces) light brown sugar
12 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted and cooled
1 large egg plus 1 large yolk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 ¼ cups (3 3/4 ounces) old-fashioned rolled oats
1 cup pecans, toasted and chopped coarse
1 cup (3 ounces) sweetened shredded coconut
⅔ cup (4 ounces) semisweet chocolate chips

BEFORE YOU BEGIN
We prefer old-fashioned rolled oats in this recipe, but you can use quick or instant oats in a pinch. Do not use thick-cut oats here; the cookies will spread too much. These cookies are big and benefit from the extra space provided by a rimless cookie sheet when baking. Our favorite cookie sheet is the Wear-Ever Cookie Sheet (Natural Finish) by Vollrath.
1. INSTRUCTIONS
Adjust oven rack to middle position and heat oven to 350 degrees. Line 2 rimless cookie sheets with parchment paper. Whisk flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt together in bowl.
2. Whisk sugar, melted butter, egg and yolk, and vanilla in large bowl until combined. Stir in flour mixture until no dry streaks remain. Stir in oats, pecans, coconut, and chocolate chips until fully combined (mixture will be sticky).

3. Lightly spray 1/4-cup dry measuring cup with vegetable oil spray. Drop level 1/4-cup portions of dough onto prepared sheets, staggering 8 portions per sheet and spacing them about 2 1/2 inches apart. Divide any remaining dough among portions.

4. Bake cookies, 1 sheet at a time, until edges are browned and set and centers are puffed with pale, raw spots, 15 to 17 minutes, rotating sheet halfway through baking. Do not over bake.

5. Let cookies cool on sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer to wire rack and let cool completely before serving. (Cookies can be stored in airtight container for up to 3 days.)
TO MAKE AHEAD: At end of step 3, wrap sheets tightly in plastic wrap and refrigerate for up to 2 days. When ready to bake, increase baking time to 16 to 18 minutes. To freeze, portion dough onto parchment-lined sheet and freeze until solid. Transfer frozen portions to zipper-lock bag and freeze for up to 2 months. Do not thaw before baking. Increase baking time to 17 to 19 minutes.
