Low Carb No Bake Cookies

On one of the Keto FB groups I frequent, I asked for dessert or sweets recipes that actually tasted good.  So many just don't.  This is one of the recipes that was suggested and I honestly like these a whole lot more than I expected!  I'm not a big fan of coconut because of the texture but this was really fine coconut so not the same.  I made it with almond butter but think I'll try real peanut butter next time.  The picture below is from the site of the original recipe.  I didn't take a picture of mine because while they tasted great, they were really flat and didn't look great.  LOL!  Anyway, simple recipe, tasty, and freezable.  What's not to like?

Left and right have chocolate added.  The middle is plain but YUMMY!

Shrimp Alfredo

OMG this was SO good!!  To celebrate my daughter's birthday I cooked a special dinner for her tonight.  She loves zucchini noodles (zoodles) as do I so I started searching a few days ago for just the perfect recipe.  What I came up with was a combination of basically three different ones!  So this is a bit labor intensive but you don't have to do it all at once if you don't want to.  I didn't.  I made the sauce and zoodles in the early afternoon then at dinner time, all I had to do was saute the shrimp and heat up the zoodles and sauce.  So easy! I forgot to sprinkle with Parmesan because I couldn't wait to dig in!   So here is my adaptation of all these recipes.  Links to the originals are within these directions. Shrimp Alfredo Makes 4 servings (1 cup zoodles, 1/4 cup sauce, 3 oz shrimp) Ingredients: FOR SAUCE (makes more than you'll need): 6 Tbsp Unsalted butter 1 cup Heavy cream 1/8 tsp Grated nutmeg Pinch Salt 1/2 cup Grated parmesan chees
