Oatmeal Spice Cookies

Monday's are kind of grim sometimes, so I thought I'd lighten this particular one up a bit by sharing a healthy and tasty cookie recipe...

Ida's Oatmeal Spice Cookies

1 cup water
2 cups raisins
4 Tbs favorite sweetener
1/2 cup butter
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 tsp allspice
1/2 tsp cinnamon
1/8 tsp nutmeg
2 1/2 cups oatmeal
1/2 cup chopped nuts
1 tsp baking soda

Boil 1 cup water and 2 cups raisins. Cool for 5 minutes. Mix in other ingredients. Form into balls and bake on lightly greased cookie sheet for 15 minutes at 325F degrees.

On another note, if you haven't been following Josh and Leah's video blog of their 21 day detox and cleansing diet, you're missing out on a lot of informative fun.

Take a few minutes and learn a lot about detox diets from a young couple who are walking the walk at http://chetday.com/21days/

That's all for this Monday.

Oh, if you have a favorite oatmeal cookie recipe, I hope you'll use the "comment" link to share it below.
