Ginger helps more than anything when chemo brings on nausea. My mom came across this  ginger cookie recipe while watching the Barefoot Contessa on TV. She made up a batch last night, and they are perfect.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Real ginger flavor, plenty of spice, soft, hearty.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you’re looking for a treat to whip up for a friend who is pregnant or going through chemotherapy, this recipe is where it’s at. Not too sweet, a powerful punch of ginger, and hearty enough to provide a sense of settling without sitting heavy after you eat one… or four.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

All that said, these are wonderful ginger cookies for everyday as well. They’ve become a staple in our home, and in our lunchboxes, too.<\/p>\n\n\n

Thanks, Mom, these cookies made my day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
