HEALTHY COWBOY COOKIES (VEGAN, GF)

Please See Other Recipes

And ho, ho, happy Monday to you. I hope it is slightly less messy than Maine’s current freezing rain/snow mood right meow. Hizzah for walking commutes!

So maybe the non-cookie (but equally awesome) holiday dessert roundup didn’t tickle your fancy. That’s okay, I still love you.

…and caved and made cookies anyways.

Rough and tough ’em cookies at that. They are called COWBOY cookies after all.

.but for that cowboy who makes a killer quinoa salad, buys low-sodium black beans, and has been known to attend a yoga class or two.

Cuz they be healthy AF.
