Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Cookies

My very very favorite cookie in the whole world.

-2 cup flour (I like King Arthur's)
- 1/2 tsp salt
-1/2 tsp baking powder
-1 tsp baking soda
-1 tbsp vanilla extract
-3 tbsp milk
-2 eggs
-1/2 lb butter
-1 cup brown sugar
-1/2 cup sugar
-3 cups oats
- can't recall if I use one whole bag or a half bag of chocolate chips. It's up to your discretion, just eye ball it :)

Preheat oven to 350. Mix dry ingredients. Mix wet ingredients separately. Combine together wet and dry ingredients. Bake at 350 for 16 mins.

Cheddar Quesadillas with Green Bell Peppers

Just a simple snack my Mom often made for us after school to tide us through to dinner.

-Tortillas of choice (I use whole wheat everything much to my husband's displeasure, but his heart will thank me later!)
- Shredded cheddar cheese (mozzarella or any cheese on hand will be fine)
-Green bell pepper

Warm up skillet, no oil needed. Place tortilla in pan, sprinkle with cheese and peppers, fold over, cook for awhile on medium high and flip to the other side. Enjoy with your children after school. :)
