DAY 95, 96 AND 97 RECIPES: FLAX AND OAT CHICKEN NUGGETS, PEASANT SOUP AND ROLO CHEESECAKE PIE!

Hello! It has been awhile since I have posted on here. I apologize. Things have been crazy! They continue to be crazy and even more crazy as each day goes by! I have a few recipes to post tonight, a bit of catch up! Two recipes on the healthier side of things, and one very unhealthy but totally delicious treat!
My hubby and I had to go move our things from our old house up in Northern Alberta and it had to happen quick! It was haywire and nuts and hard to throw everything together that quickly for a long distance move, especially on a pretty tight budget! But that is the great thing about being back in my hometown! Old friends always seem to come through at just the right moment! My old friend Pete has a moving and storage business here in town and he helped us out! They did such a great job I had to give them a shout out on here! I also thought it would be nice to bake them some nice goodies for a job well done! So that is where the Rolo Cheesecake Pie comes in! It also happens to be Petes birthday this weekend, so that is even better timing!
I will say, if anyone needs any help moving or you are lookinbg for storage in the Cranbrook area, check out Mission View Moving and Storage 250-489-8772.
