It's a cookie kind of day <3 Nothing wrong with that, right?
These cookies are designed to be a post-workout cookie. Carbohydrate to protein ratio is 2:1 which is ideal for recovery and building muscle. Against popular belief, carbs do not make you fat! They are required to fuel the body and they also help you to recover after a workout.
Happy first of October! I for one absolutely love the month of October. The temperature starts to go down (even though its still 90 degrees today here in AZ) and it officially feels like it's truly fall. No more sweating just walking to the car! Yay!
Oh, and Halloween is in October. Duh. The only holiday in which it's mildly appropriate to stuff your face with candy...which I should probably be against, but hey, its one day right? ;)
Raw, vegan, no-added sugar, gluten-free, grain-free, soy-free. No, I'm not talking about water. But rather I'm talking about these amazing peanut butter "cookies"!
They actually taste similar to peanut butter cookies, too. If you have ever had the Peanut Butter Cookie Larabar, these are very similar.
If you haven't seen the news the past few months, cereal has been center-stage. Commercial breakfast cereals are being bashed for being incredibly high in sugar and low in the important stuff - natural fiber and protein. One serving of Honey Smacks cereal has 15 grams of sugar - that's over 3 teaspoons of sugar for breakfast! And we all know that most people aren't eating just one serving of cereal...Not the best way to start the day.
Instead, how about of some homemade cereal that's free of preservatives and wasn't made in a factory? I promise, this recipe is a cinch to make! This recipe can easily by made vegan and/or gluten-free.
These squares are hearty, filling, and utterly delicious. This cereal can be eaten as is, with milk, or my favorite - sprinkled on top of yogurt.
