I'm a busy mom who happens to be a vegetarian and an advocate for home-cooked foods... which means I'm always looking for quick, easy, nutritious vegetarian recipes. If they're kid-friendly, all the better! I'm also interested in the health benefits of natural supplements and uses for natural products. I'm willing to share all my interests, curiosities and proven yummy recipes!

Banana Oatmeal Raisin Cookies
Since most Christmas cookies aren't of the meat variety, I have a lot of options for this time of year! Here are the most recent ones I've tried. I didn't care for these myself... they tasted a little too much like banana bread, which I don't happen to like. However, from those who are so inclined, these have been given the seal of approval.
1 1/2 cups flour
1 cup sugar
1 tsp salt
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
1/2 tsp allspice
1/2 tsp nutmeg
2 tbsp hot cocoa mix
3/4 cup butter, softened
1 egg
2 mashed ripe bananas
1 cup raisins
1 3/4 cup quick-cook oats
Soak raisins in 1 cup warm water for 15 minutes.
Combine dry ingredients in a mixing bowl; beat in butter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Add egg, bananas and oats; mix well. Stir in raisins.
Spray baking sheet with non-stick spray. Drop tablespoon-size balls onto greased baking sheet. Bake at 375 for 13 minutes.
