Plant-based superfood cookies for BREAKFAST, yes please!
Meet the breakfast cookie that dietitian’s dreams are made of. Made with whole grain oats and nutrient-packed “superfoods”.
Superfood is a word we hear all the time. It’s a general word used to describe foods with a HIGH level of nutrients (think antioxidants, vitamins and minerals) relative to the amount of calories it contains.
These are made with Suncore Foods superfoods, a new-to-me brand that I am obsessing over! They carry unique nutrient-rich superfoods including cacao nibs, goji berries, chia seeds and TURMERIC powder. Some nutrient standouts in this recipe:
Goji Berries: One of the most antioxidant-rich foods out there! Goji berries make a great sweet snack or tossed into a trail mix.
Cacao Nibs: The sugar-free, antioxidant-rich alternative to chocolate chips. I love my cacao nibs in yogurt and baked goods!
Chia Seeds: Small in size but packed with FIBER. I love sharing this visual with my clients: 1 tablespoon of chia seeds is equivalent to the amount of fiber that you would get from one APPLE. Toss these little guys into your morning oatmeal or smoothie.
You know that I am ALL about a diet focused on nutrient-dense foods.
I love that superfoods are easy to incorporate into everyday meals from breakfast oatmeal or smoothies to salads at lunch.
