What started as my love for cooking & Indian food inspired me to start a blog about my journey. Now, with an altered eating lifestyle, I'm gonna kick it up a notch. Paleo, here we come! We've taken to a slightly modified Paleo lifestyle (we did not eliminate dairy), and so far we are loving it. My goal is to tranform all my favorites into paleo friendly meals! We are in this for the long haul, so let the experiments begin!

Cookie Dough Dip
I cannot take credit for this one at all. Big shout to Paleo Parents for coming up with this Paleo version. Shortly before we went Paleo, I made the normal cookie dough dip, and it was amazing. So you can imagine our disappointment of losing such a gem by changing eating habits. When I saw this posted on Pinterest, I put it on my "must make" list. Thankfully, we had a BBQ yesterday and I had the perfect reason to make it. Super easy, and I have to admit, even better than the original non-paleo version. Seriously.
Ingredients
2 c. Almond Flour
1/2 c. Butter Flavored Palm Shortening
1/4 c. Honey
1/4 c. Maple Syrup
1 tbsp. Vanilla
Mini-chocolate chips
Pecan pieces
Candy coated sunflower seeds (totally not paleo, but I made a litte exception)
Directions
Combine all ingredients but the candy and nuts and blend until smooth. Stir in the candy/nuts (be creative and put in whatever you want.
** I clearly made a concession with the candy coated sunflower seeds, but I felt that that small concession was better than adding some other non-healthy additive in there. After making this, I think it could easily be made into so many insane combinations. Next time I think I'm gonna actually try making a "oatmeal" cookie version. Thanks again Paleo Parent!
