    The Perfect {uber healthy} Chocolate Chip Cookie

    Follow my blog with Bloglovin

    This is the perfect oatmeal chocolate chip cookie, if you ask me. It's super healthy {packed with tons of whole foods, no filler ingredients} - which is a requirement if I'm posting it here on my blog - and it passes the taste test by both kids and adults. It's crunchy, chunky, salty, sweet and hearty. The chocolate is ooey gooey as well.

    This cookie is flourless, full of sprouted buckwheat, chia seeds, sunflower and pumpkin seeds, nuts, dark chocolate and sweetened with coconut sugar. There aren't exactly low fat; I love my cookies with the fatty taste and texture.

    I feel like I have been making cookies for so long now that I could almost do it with my eyes closed; after years in a commercial kitchen testing recipes and manufacturing cookies to sell to stores, I have no almost no need to measure ingredients.

    But thankfully, this time, I measured so that I could share this recipe with everybody! My kids are especially fans of this one.

    This recipe was going to go into my self-published cookbook that has been in the making for way too long now. I took a break from it because the software just drained my free time - glitches, kinks, shut downs, errors, etc. - and so for now, I'm going to wait until I can find a better site to print it. I will slowly release some of the recipes via the blog. So stay tuned. This recipe being one of my sweet favorites.

    OATMEAL CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIE RECIPE

    yields about 12-14 cookies

    INGREDIENTS

    1 cup gluten-free oats

    1 cup Go Raw sprouted buckwheat groats + flax combo

    ⅓ cup Go Raw sprouted sunflower seeds or regular sunflower seeds

    ⅓ cup pumpkin seeds

    ½ cup walnuts

    ½ cup chocolate chips {dark preferrably}

    large pinch sea salt

    ½ teaspoon vanilla extract + 1 vanilla bean {inside seeds, scraped}

    3 Tbls chia seeds, soaked in water until it forms a gel, about 5 minutes

    ⅓ cup vegan butter or goats butter, room temp {not liquid}

    ½ cup coconut sugar

    DIRECTIONS

    Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.

    In a food processor chop nuts, sesame seeds, pumpkin seeds and oats for about 5 pulses. Just to mix and slightly chop. Add buckwheat and give it another 4 pulses.

    Remove dry ingredients and set aside in large bowl. In the food processor add butter, vanilla, and coconut sugar. Give it a few pulses until everything is thoroughly mixed.

    Using your hands, combine everything and add in the chia seed gel. Mix with your hands until everything is evenly distributed.

    Using your hands again, press dough into very tightly packed balls. Place dough balls onto a greased cookie sheet. Do this until mixture is gone.

    Since there are no eggs or baking powders this dough won't feel right. But trust me. It will hold together. 

    Bake cookies for about 10-15 minutes and using a spatula press each ball down gently to form more of a flat patty. Bake for another 10-15 minutes until cookies are slightly browned on top and around the bottom edges. Let cool! Enjoy! Kids love these as well.

    Enjoy + don't forget to share! {wink}

    xoxo, Juli

        Sorry for the mess up. Check recipe again. There was a glitch when I was inputting my recipe and the site didn't refresh correctly. Sorry for missing chocolate chips. Hope that helps and thanks for the comment. Sorry for confusion 😉

        There was a refresh issue. My platform didn't post the changes I had made from the edits I was working on when it crashed. Please see recipe again. Sorry for confusion. I use GoRaw's sprouted buckwheat and always keep that on hand for cookies. They are already dehydrated and flax are added as well which is so helpful. Thanks for comment 😉

      These sound so good! How much sesame seeds do you use? It wasn't listed in the ingredients list but you mentioned it in the instructions.

        It's actually sunflower seeds. Not sure where you saw sesame seeds but that would make sense if I said that, because I ALWAYS mix them up when talking. Hmmm. Check the recipe again there was a refresh issue.

    Move over eggs. This tofu scramble is comin’ in hot! 🍳
Just 5 minutes and you’ve got breakfast. So often I get asked for breakfast ideas when transitioning to a plant based diet. This is a great egg sub and is savory and high in healthy protein. 
1 cube medium hard tofu 
1 tsp turmeric 
Salt and pepper to taste. 
1/2 Tbsp olive oil or other cooking oil 
In a frying pan sauté on medium high heat for 5 minutes. Stirring often. Add garlic or onions or cheese. I added spinach to mine. 😋

    Let’s get real : Succeeding at anything takes discipline. Even manifesting takes discipline. Often clients say that they tried this diet or that diet. And they can’t seem to reach their health goals or heal or lose weight. And every time we take a deep look it’s because there really isn’t the discipline they think there is! The same way a fish doesn’t see water we have a hard time recognizing our own self sabotaging habits and patterns. 
I’m not talking about restriction or lack or counting calories or counting fat grams. That’s old-school. Don’t confuse discipline with restriction.
P.S. this my first attempt at trying out trending audios😜🤷‍♀️

    Damn this combo of garlic, ginger and tahini over sautéed potatoes is 💣. I love tahini dressing because of how creamy it gets without using cashews or dairy products. I first sautéed the potatoes in vegan butter. I added a few shallots for fun. THAT’S IT. If you cut them thin enough they cook in just 5-6 minutes on medium high heat. I added raw kale to them for added fiber and minerals. 
Dressing 
2 cloves garlic
1/4 inch piece of fresh ginger
1 whole lemon
2-3 Tbsp sesame oil, 
1 heaping Tbsp tahini
2 Tbsp water
big pinch sea salt. 
blend it all together until creamy and chunk-free. 
Enjoy

    LISTEN 👂I wish somebody shared this wisdom with
    LISTEN 👂I wish somebody shared this wisdom with me when I was younger. 
I used to think perfection was actually THE goal in life. Literally that’s what I thought - be your best, do your best, be the nicest, get the best grades, look your best, date the best, eat the best, do no wrong, don’t argue, be happy and makes others happy, give give give…and if I didn’t accomplish those things I was very concerned. I wondered what was wrong with me and punish myself. I know…laughable right? But nobody told me otherwise🤷‍♀️ 
This is what a version of codependency looks like: perpetual state of feeling not good enough, constant state of fear or fight or flight…exhausting, defeating and eventually leads to dis-ease. A victim in almost all areas of your life: “Why is this person being awful to me, why am I sick when others are well, this isn’t fair”. 
After deep healing and self exploration, I clearly see how my ways of looking at life, my own actions (people pleasing or having no boundaries), attract the abusers, users, haters, broken people; I attracted people to treat me poorly. 
So, this is what is meant by “taking accountability” for your life and understanding why certain things are happening “to you”. 
Not everybody is supposed to like you or agree with you or UNDERSTAND YOU. But taking it PERSONAL (becoming a victim) is your choice. Being Treated with complete disrespect is THEIR choice. Playing IN THE game of TOXICITY however is also your choice.
Freedom is attainable. Healing is attainable. Harmony and peace are attainable. It just requires radical self awareness. Today I choose to break the rules that were never there to begin with.
