Cookies and Cream Cookies!

I had a surprise on my door that said, “Happy Tuesday!”  It was a bag of cookie dough!  With the Corona Virus going around, I’m sure they decided I could cook off any extra germs.  They are delicious, and taste just like Cookies and Cream!
After asking countless friends who could have dropped off the dough, I finally got a lead.  I asked my friend Suzanne.  She said she could neither confirm or deny if it was her.  It probably was a fairy or leprechaun.  She told me to let her know what kind of cookie it was and she might have a recipe similar.  Love her.  So fun.  

Cookies and Cream Cookies
1 cup butter or margarine softened
1/2 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup sugar
1 box (4.2 ounce) cookies and cream pudding
2 eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 1/4 cups flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon baking soda
10 oreo cookies 
1/2 cup white chocolate chips

Cream butter and sugars.  Stir in pudding powder.  Add eggs and vanilla.  Mix in flour, soda, and salt.  Chop oreos into small pieces and add to dough.  Add chips.  Stir.  Bake on greased cookie sheet at 350° for 7 to 9 minutes.


Greek Chicken Wrap
From Fitness Pal

4 oz of shredded chicken
1 cup of grape tomatoes cut in halves
1 cucumber cut up (2 small ones)
2 T. Feta cheese
3 T. Cut up olives
1 T. Lemon juice (used a squirt of lime, what I had)
1 T. Olive oil
1 T. Oregano

Tortillas and Hummus
Spread hummus (about 1-2 tablespoons) on tortilla.  Mix all of the above in a bowl.
Put mix in the center of tortilla and wrap up.  Delicious.  Makes around 2-3 wraps.


Cheerio Snack

My daughter Edith got a recipe from her teacher to try.  We made them, and they were a little sweet for our taste, but pretty good.  So I looked up some recipes that were similar and decided to create our own.

1/2 cup of peanut butter (I used Nuttzo)
1/4 cup honey
3 cups of Cheerios

(They were a little crumbly, prob need a little more honey.  97 calories, serving 1/16)
