Recipes of the Week: Part 6

Cauliflower, Kale & Chickpea Curry by The First Mess
+ This is a very hearty recipe.
+ I added extra potatoes and cauliflower.
+ I also added a bit of cumin and turmeric, because I found the recipes just a little bland.
- I couldn't find the Tuscan kale at my grocery store, so I just used regular kale and it still tasted lovely!

Coconut Butter Brownies by Coconut Almond Recipes

+ Super light and fluffy treats that aren't too sweet. 

- Personally I would have liked them to be a little more chocolatey. Next time I might try adding some cocoa powder as well.

+ I would highly recommend using parchment paper, instead of just oiling the pan. It's always a safe bet for an easy clean.  

- The only dark chocolate I had, had almonds in it. Hopefully they didn't throw off the recipe too much. 

+ They taste really great when fresh out of the oven and also after they've been in the fridge. 

- I would make these again with a few tweaks. 

Flourless Thumbprint Cookies by Oh She Glows

+ Ok, I think these could be fantastic. I didn't have any jam, so I just used peanut butter and honey. They were pretty dry, but even so they disappeared quite quickly. 

+ They are super easy and fast to make.

+ Definitely gonna try these again when I have jam. 

Here are my Pinterest finds from last week, clearly I was craving all of the sweets! With it being Halloween and temptation lurking in every corner, it was hard to stay on track! I think that's why I was dying to try all of these healthier options. I also made Samoa Bars that were SO tasty I gave them their own post! You can check them out here!
