Grain Free Cookies

Um, YUM. That is the end of the story.



But, seriously, these were so delish, they were consumed in just a few days. So good.

So why grain free you ask? Well, super long story short, I had not been feeling well for a while. Lethargic, upset stomach, everything was making me nauseous and I was literally STARVING all day every single day. Something had to change. I've known for years that I have PCOS, but I have not done anything about it. So I started doing some research and am making what I hope are the necessary changes to my diet. And I can say I feel so much better.

So while I will not let my taste buds suffer at the hand of PCOS, I am dedicated to changing my diet. And of course cookies were the first PCOS friendly food I made.
Here you go!!

This recipe is not my own, I'm merely sharing it. I found it here and I didn't change anything except the amount of vanilla.

Since I don't know much about grain free cooking, a lot of recipes will just be ones I'm sharing.
