The perfect way to start your day or for that 3:00 pm pick-me-up. This is basically an 'everything you eat in breakfast form' type of cookie, so totally guilt-free... right?
Packed with grains and seeds, we are making them over and over again in the 2DA kitchen.
Oh! Another great thing about this one is you can use any nuts and seeds you have on hand... who doesn't love a versatile cookie?!

Don't eat them all too quickly, but if you do, they aren't hard to make again!
