Protein Power Cookies
It doesn’t happen to me often but yesterday I just got the urge to bake something. I didn’t want to make it too unhealthy and so I came up with these really great cookies made with chickpeas, tahini and pea protein. I wanted a little bit extra and so I put some chopped up chocolate in there, too.
