I had a grand ol' time catching up with our old friends. I gotta say it was pretty tough eating my meals that I brought while everyone ate the "bad stuff" ; ) During my cheatmeal they ended up grilling CHICKEN!!! So I went ahead and ate that and indulged in a rootbeer float, no-bake cookies, banana pudding, and pineapple/cherry dumpcake. I wasn't letting my "cheatmeal" go to waste. Because I loved these No-Bake Cookies so much, I did some research and found a healthier and protein packed alternative.
You will need:
1/2 cup margarine or Smart Butter
1/2 cup Skim milk
4 Tbsp chocolate protein powder Ump by Beverly is best)
1 Tbsp cocoa powder
1 1/2 cups Splenda Sugar Substitute or Stevia
1/2 cup all natural peanut butter
3 cups quick oats
1/4 cup unsweetened coconut flakes
2 tsp pure vanilla extract
Directions:
- Melt margarine in a saucepan and add milk, protein powder, Splenda, and cocoa powder.
- Bring to a boil for no more than a minute or until thick.
- Remove from heat and quickly add in the oats, coconut, peanut butter, and vanilla.
- Mix well.
- Using a pan lined with wax paper, press mixture into cookies or using a fork, add mixture to wax paper to make cookies. Let cool and enjoy.
