Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Bites
We are in Whistler and no one feels like skiing. It’s one of those lazy can’t-get-out-of-PJs days, yet I could tell my little ladies were feeling antzy. So I enticed them with making some treats. They thought they were making good old chocolate chip cookies. Not really a regular in our house. And they were rather unimpressed when they saw the hemp and chia being pulled out. But since there was dark chocolate chips on the counter, my open minded little souls were eager to see what we were well, rolling.And to their surprise (I love when this happens) these protein-packed fibre bites were so popular, my oldest enlisted the crew to make yet another batch. And I got to sit back, enjoy and know they are fuelling their bodies with healthy treats. These will also be a hit for school.Do you need focused nutrition help while creating lasting healthy habits for you and your family?
