you got oats in my chocolate chip cookies!

I'm always trying out different oatmeal cookie recipes, and while this is really a chocolate chip cookie with oats, it's still a keeper: Oatmeal-Flax Chocolate Chip cookies. I have to admit I chickened out and did not buy the ground flaxseed; I honestly didn't know what I was going to do with the rest of the bag. Next time I will do my research first--these cookies are worth it.

My cookies came out perfectly round and nearly flat, which was perfect for ice cream sandwiches (yeah, I made a couple). I also used the mini-size semisweet chips, just in case I didn't like them (also, I have other recipes for those chips--see, I was sort of prepared) but that wasn't even an issue. If you like a nice, chewy chocolate chip cookie, give these a try.

fun on a bun...

Technically, the bun is optional but I just have to recommend these Spice-Rubbed Chicken Breasts.  I thought it sounded like a different kind of chicken sandwich for me and I'd never made a rub before. I have plenty of recipes but none which triggered an immediate response of, "I must try this." Also, I'd never purchased cumin before. It smells like the primary ingredient in a packet of taco seasoning, so you can see why it would need to be balanced out with brown sugar. Actually, all of the spices work well together, even the little tang of thyme. I think I'll be trying it on salmon next.
