Brilliant Gluten Free Coconut Macaroons, GF, Sugarfree option

I love the sweet chewiness of a coconut macaroon but the sugar content in the commercial products was always too much for my tastes. Until I made these...They are divine and healthy! And guess what? they are super easy to make gluten free!

Skinny Gluten Free Greek Steak Salad

We decided to do a light healthy Skinny Gluten Free  Greek Steak Salad for Easter dinner.  Too hot here in Florida to cook!
 Aldi had great produce on sale recently so I needed to use it up!!
 One steak was plenty and can I say yummmmm.....
 Somehow salad's get really big....
 Oh my, it was good and we have leftovers for lunch today!!

If you haven't tried Aldi's GF hummus you should.  It's wonderful and a great price.  Hope you enjoy!
