Quinoa Cookies

This cookie is a cross between a chocolate chips and oatmeal cookie and oh so yummy. I was stunned by how much it made , cause my friend just handed me the ingredients, said “Mix, scoop bake” Turns out it make just over 3 dozen cookies , and the reason why it needs to make so much is simply- they taste so darn good! These are a great snack or breakfast cookie, made with whole wheat flour, some seasoning, applesauce, oats and quinoa you really can’t go wrong. I will try to pop them into the freezer after baking pull them out when needed. My kids loved them!
