I found these on Pinterest and decided to try them. I really can't believe how wonderful they are. They don't have any flour in them they are very interesting.
I doubled this
1 1/2 cups chocolate chips (divided) I used milk chocolate chips
3 large egg whites
2 1/2 cups powdered sugar (divided)
1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1 Tablespoon cornstarch
1/4 teaspoon salt
Preheat oven to 350. Spray cookie sheets with cooking spray. Melt 1 cup chocolate chips in the microwave, stirring every 30 seconds. Cool slightly.
Using electric mixer beat whites in large bowl to soft peaks. Gradually beat in 1 cup sugar. Continue beating until mixture resembles soft marshmallow cream.
Whisk 1 cup sugar, cocoa, cornstarch, and salt in medium bowl to blend. On low speed, beat dry ingredients into meringue.
Stir in lukewarm chocolate and 1/2 cup chocolate chips (dough will become very stiff)
Place 1/2 cup sugar in bowl. Roll 1 rounded tablespoon dough into a ball; roll in sugar, coating thickly. Place on prepared sheet. Repeat with remaining dough, spacing 2 inches apart.
Bake until puffed and tops crack, about 10 minutes. Cool on sheets on rack 10 minutes. Transfer to rack; cool.

Orange Ginger Chicken and Veggies
Gina found this in the Light and Tasty magazine. They really loved it. I love making Chinese but for some reason never do.
1 medium navel orange
4 teaspoons cornstarch
1/4 teaspoon ground ginger or 1 teaspoon fresh grated ginger root
1 cup chicken broth
2 Tablespoons soy sauce
2 Tablespoons chili sauce
1/4 teaspoon hot pepper sauce
1 lb. chicken breasts cut into 1 inch pieces
2 garlic cloves minced
1 Tablespoon canola oil
2 cups broccoli florets
1 medium red and yellow bell peppers julienned
1/2 cup shredded carrot
1/3 cup unsalted cashews
rice
Grate orange peel, reserving 1 1/2 teaspoons. Peel and section orange, set orange sections aside. In a small bowl, combine the cornstarch and ginger. Stir in the broth, soy sauce, chili sauce, hot pepper sauce and reserved grated orange peel until blended; set aside.
In a large nonstick skillet or wok, stir-fry the chicken and garlic in oil for 2-3 minutes or until lightly browned. Add the broccoli, peppers, and carrot; stir-fry for 5 minutes or until the veggies are crisp-tender. Stir broth mixture and add to the pan. Bring to a boil; cook and stir for 2 minutes or until thickened. Remove from the heat; stir in cashews and reserved orange sections. Serve with brown rice.
