After my oldest was diagnosed with migraines, my husband and I set out to find "triggers." Through our research, we found lots of scary information about toxins in our food and in our everyday products. This information led us down a path to find how we can minimize these toxins in our life, and ensure that our kids have the best life possible. We indulge in fast food, junk, etc. on occasion, but on a daily basis, we try to find meals and other foods that our kids love, but their bodies love more. This blog is dedicated to sharing what I've found works (and sometimes doesn't work).

Oatmeal Cookies

So, I've found the perfect healthy cookie that my kids love.  The recipe is here:

I did tweak it a little to suit us.  First, I used all organic ingredients.  Second, I used wheat flour instead of white flour.  Third, I used oat bran instead of oatmeal.  It makes the texture a little less chunky.  Last, I added some chocolate chips, not many, but enough to add a little something extra.  The end result?  30 awesome cookies, around 50 calories each, that my whole family loves...especially my two-year-old!  Just had to share :)
