Heh.Ĭhickpea flour is simply a fine flour made from ground up dried chickpeas or garbanzo beans.

Just an experimenter, determined to get you into the kitchen and get a little ambitious. Yes, that’s right: chocolate chip cookies made from chickpea flour.

Yes, you read that right: chickpea flour chocolate chip cookies that are amazingly delicious, chewy and both dairy free and gluten free! That’s exactly where these chickpea flour cookies come in. The difference though, is that I now focus on both the quality and nutrition of ingredients. I choose nutritious foods that will keep me feeling wonderful on both the inside and out. These days I still bake frequently it continues to be one of the loves in my life and I could never see myself giving it up. My love for nutrition was always there, but was somehow got buried in the comfort of brown buttery baked goods and binging. If you spend some time looking back in my blog’s archives, you can see that I approach food much differently now. I baked during every moment of free time because I wanted to forget what my heart could not. I dug my fork into a pan of brownies with no regard for my health, confidence or body. I ate all the cookies I made, and I mean all of them. I ate because food was the only thing that felt soothing, even though it would never sew up the hole left in my heart. So I ate! I ate because I didn’t want to think or feel. I was finally alone all by myself, in an unknown city grieving my father’s passing, and needed comfort in any form. That year proved to be one of the toughest years I had ever been through. So I took a job in marketing at an engineering consulting firm.

I knew that I needed to support myself, make a decent income and be independent. When I first started my blog, I had just moved to Washington D.C., was utterly confused about what to do with my life and had endless amounts of student loans.
