21 Day Fix Oatmeal Cookies with Chocolate Morsels

When I first got my 21 DAY FIX Challenge pack in the mail--I have to admit that I was a little nervous about the size of the portion-controlled containers---and the feeling that the diet may be a little too restrictive. I never do well with restricting certain foods. Psychologically, it makes me want that food EVEN MORE---and sends me into a binge session...

So, I was SUPER EXCITED to find out that this program not only allows for MORE THAN ENOUGH food (honestly, it's tough to finish), but--it includes treats! Check out this recipe, straight from the program manual. 

When I made them, I only had raw organic walnuts---and a large bar of bittersweet baking chocolate. So, I just chopped those up, instead of the pecans and morsels. They came out great! Like a little oatmeal dream. Better yet--my husband enjoyed them, too! Give them a shot!
