One of the main reasons I work out is so I can eat. Lots. I love me some good, healthy food!
Sunday morning we usually either have whole wheat crepes (made my Karl) or whole wheat waffles (made by me). I wanted to share the waffle recipe with you!
Whole Wheat Waffles
1 3/4 c whole wheat flour
1 T baking powder
1/2 t salt
1/4 c honey
2 T canola oil
2 eggs
2 c milk (cow or soy)
(flaxseed)
Noah and Max like their waffles with honey and cinnamon, frozen berries on the side. Karl and I usually top ours with yogurt and banana and/or berries. The boys love to snack on waffles during church as well.

During our St. George Training Camp Leslie found this great recipe for oatmeal protein cookies. It was perfect for what we wanted. Easy, fast, healthy and still satisfied our cravings. It is definitely not your regular cookie: no flour, no sugar, no oil. I think it is a great pre-exercise and recovery snack.
Oatmeal Protein Cookies
1/4 c apple sauce
1 c quick oats
1/2 c egg white
1 scoop protein powder
I like to add some or all of the following:
walnut pieces
raisins
unsweetened coconut flakes
Bake at 300 degrees for 10-12 minutes.
Happy Baking if you feel inclined to do so.

the protein cookies take the cake (?) for sounding weird but tasting good.

Tony just showed me your blog and I love it! I came across your protein cookie recipe and decided to give it a whirl since I was in charge of making breakfast cookies for Easter Sunday at church. But my only protein powder was blueberry, so I figured I'd dub them “blueberry coconut” cookies. Turns out that name was overkill. I mixed everything together and they came out BRIGHT BLUE!! They were absolutely delicious, but it took some serious convincing for people to give them a try. Yummy recipe!
