Blueberry-Chip Gluten-Free Cookies
The Best Home-Made “Healthy” Chocolate Chip Cookies
I used to have a “favorite” healthy cookie, but I think this one just took its place.
And its so healthy and so good for you, that I can’t even believe myself how good it is.
I made these and took them out on our boat ride this weekend, and while everyone munched on “crap”….. excuse my language…… I felt great about eating my “healthy” cookies. Actually, I didn’t even feel like I was missing out on what the others were eating because I was enjoying myself so much.
And that, my friend, is the trick to getting long lasting results…….. Not feeling deprived, but being able to eat healthy consistently and enjoy it without the need to BINGE.
By the way, I wrote a really great post of CUTTING CARBS OUT OF YOUR DIET, and why it doesn’t work. I gave all the reasons why it doesn’t work and how you can still lose weight by eating carbs all the time so click here to check it out.
As for me and my clients, I have found the absolute best results by doing this which is why I spend so much time into testing and making new, healthy, and delicious recipes like this one I am about to share with you.
And the best part is that they are made with blueberries.
And blueberries are so good for you and they are so yum. One of my favorite recipes for healthy breakfast or snack is my Blueberry Egg White pancakes from my Eat To Be Fit Healthy Recipes Book. Which by the way you can download IMMEDIATELY and have access to it and over 300 more healthy recipes.

They have been said to have one of the richest amounts of antioxidants, and of all the fruits, its one of the ones with the lowest Glycemic Index. Which just means it has a low effect on blood sugar.
So I am happy to incorporate these into this amazing recipe as an added bonus.
Before I give you this delicious recipe, I have to make sure you are not eating one or more of foods on this list. Because if you are, it can be completely SABOTAGING your results.
Yes, it can totally be true that you can be working your butt off at the gym 6 days a week, “trying” to eat super healthy, but if you are eating one or more of these foods, you will NOT BE ABLE TO LOSE WEIGHT.
This is so important and makes such a huge impact on your results that I decided to compile these foods into a PDF for you. These foods may seem healthy but they are highly inflammatory and inflammation in the digestive track will not allow you to burn fat effectively…. no matter what!
So go to the following link where you can download this information for free. I also added a list of 5 Foods that are NECESSARY for you to include in your diet if you want to LOSE WEIGHT and GET TONED.
I also took the liberty to share with you a short video of my favorite 5 ABS EXERCISES. The ones that have gotten me ABS after having 2 kids (daughter is 15 months) and I never had them before. Here is the link so you can download the PDF and get the VIDEO. Start applying it right now. Take those 5 foods out of your KITCHEN immediately! LINK TO PDF & VIDEO
