Awesome, they are excellent cookies, I took them to my several friends, they were all addicted, I gave them the recipe too, I think this is the best oatmeal chocolate chips cookies.
Quinoa is an excellent grain, with smoked tofu, halves cherry tomatoes, cucumber and yellow bell pepper, they are fantastic salad, very light and tasty, low-fat and low calorie too.
