Sugarless Wheat 'n' Fruit Cookies
1/2 cup Butter, softened
1 Egg
2 tsp Vanilla extract
1 cup Whole wheat flour
1 tsp Baking powder
1/8 tsp Salt
1 cup Unsweetened coconut, flaked
1 cup Unsugared dates, chopped
4 tsp Orange peel, fresh grated
1 cup Pecans, finely ground


Cream the butter, egg and vanilla together in a large mixing bowl. In
a small bowl, combine the whole wheat flour, baking powder and salt.
Add the flour mixture a little at a time, to the creamed mixture,
beating after each addition. In a medium bowl, combine the coconut,
dates, orange peel, and 1/2 cup of the pecans. Stir into the cookie
mixture. Divide the dough in half and form into two logs,
approximately 1.1/2 inches in diameter. Place the remaining 1/2 cup
of pecans on a piece of waxed paper. Roll the logs in the nuts. Wrap
each log in waxed paper and chill for 1 hour. To bake, slice the logs
into 1/8 inch rounds and place them on an ungreased cookie sheet.
Bake at 350 degrees for 10 to 12 minutes, until lightly browned.

Makes 5 dozen.

Diet hints and tips

If you enjoy your food, but want to regain your youthful figure and make improvements in your overall healthfulness, without doubt you ought to follow a carefully prepared healthy nutrition system. Theoretically, this must involve 5 standard portions of fruit and vegetables each day and embrace a sensible mix of fat, carbohydrates and protein.

When people first start dieting, they most certainly direct their attention on supermarket and well known products known as 'low-fat'. This is most certainly foolish, given that a food may well be lowered in fat, but whilst still remaining dangerously high in carbs.

In deciding on a diet, the most important step is to also try to lower your consumption of fats, refined carbohydrates and salt.
