These cookies are a win-win, delicious and nutritious! They’re a great grab-and-go meal or snack that can be made ahead of time (with the option to freeze too). Besides the fact that they are yummy, the healthful ingredients provide so many important nutrients. Oats are a whole-grain prebiotic (I’ll explain in another blog, but take my word, it’s good) that are associated with decreased risk for colon and breast cancers, avocado are a heart-healthy fat that also contains antioxidants and yogurt has calcium, vitamin D and protein.
