I'm type 2 so I've been looking for a healthier cookie recipe for when the craving gets too much to ignore ;) This is it! I made these last night and foolishly followed some other reviewers suggestions by cutting the honey in half and adding another 1/4 cup of w/w flour to make the dough more manageable. BIG MISTAKE! they tasted bland and the extra flour ruined them, making them so flaky and brittle that you couldn't even pick them up. Threw them all away after two cookies. Then I tackled this recipe again today and did it exactly as is except I also used Splenda Brown Sugar Blend in place of regular brown sugar, and it came out 1000 times better. I had friends over for dinner and they said they couldn't tell the difference between these and regular peanut butter cookies. So why 4 stars? Because I can tell the difference ;) But truly is an AWESOME, healthy, alternative to the fatty, carb filled, evil twin! Amazing for a whole wheat cookie.

I've tried a couple pizza sauce recipes on this site and never really liked any of them, until I found this one! As others noted, it's a terrific base to start with and tinker to your tastes. I added 1/4 tsp of marjoram and 1/4 tsp Italian seasoning in addition to the called for spices. I also cut the sugar and grated Parmesan in half and omitted the wine. after simmering i turned the burner off and let it sit there on the warm stove covered while I baked cookies and prepared the whole wheat pizza crust so that the flavors would have time to blend even more. It turned out fantastic! I had friends over for dinner and they raved! Definitely a keeper in my recipe box. Thanks!!

I was going through my reviews and noticed i NEVER rated this yet added it almost two years ago haha! This is a simple, easy, fantastic stew recipe. I have made it many times and there is never any leftovers! Sometimes I like to add a packet of Lipton onion soup mix to the pot for a little extra zest!
