Welcome
This blog is about the success I have had in losing 85 pounds in the year 2010.
I have mantained this for over a year just by eating for my blood type.
Removing foods like wheat and corn because they interfere with insulin efficiency and slow a blood type O's metabolic rate.
In a perfect world I could live without everything . I do on a very rare occasion have some foods but (very little)that I shouldn't but NEVER wheat or corn.

I write about how I did the every day and the emotions that go with it.
I am in the process of writing a cookbook that has all of my recipes I have created to help on this journey.

My purpose in this blog is to encourage and equip people who are struggling with weight loss and eating healthy.

Eating healthy is the only way out.
I ate my way in this, so I ate my way out.

Happy Eating

Chocolate Walnut Toffee Bars

This is a decadent high caloric once in awhile dessert ...not for the faint of calorie <3
As always use organic ingredients when ever possible
I have tried to post the picture of the front of the cook book giving credit where credit is due but not sure what went wrong will fix ASAP


I found a cookbook that is gluten free . I have only tried a few recipes but I have had to alter things because of my preference and food allergies.

1/3 cup of butter
1/2 cup sugar
1 1/2 cups brown rice flour
1 egg  ( I used 1 Tb ground flaxseed 3 Tb water mixed set aside)
2 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
11/2 tsp xantham gum
1/2 tsp vanilla extract

Topping
1/2 cup brown sugar
1/3 cup butter
3/4 cup chopped pecans(I used chopped walnuts)
1cup choc chips ( I used Enjoy Life semi sweet mini vegan choc chips from )

Mix butter and sugar
Mix in brown rice flour then mix remaining  ingredients.
Butter pan then press in a even layer and bake until golden brown on edges for  approx 15 min.
Set aside

In sauce pan melt and bring to low boil the first 2 topping ingredients
Simmer And Whisk together while simmering and it will gel together when this happens it is ready
Pour over baked bar and spread evenly
Sprinkle with pecans-(I used chopped walnuts)
Sprinkle with choc chips- waiting a few minutes for the chips to melt a bit then spread with a spoon
Let cool COMPLETELY
Cut into squares
Happy Eating
Sandra
