Chocolate Covered Cherry Protein Packed Cookies
"This recipe is my own creation and is a compromise recipe between my husband who gets mad at me for making sweets because he tries to stay very healthy and fit... and me, who loves chocolate and a little dessert. I too enjoy a healthy lifestyle, but a girl needs her chocolate!"

These cookies are so amazing! I love that they are such a tasty treat, while still maintaining the healthy cooking that I love. It's a chocolate treat without the CHEAT!

Hey There! Just a little about me.... I am a Marketing Director by day and a house wife by night! I love to have simple easy meals that are pretty healthy, without losing the flavor. I like things done quickly and with little clean up so I can relax the rest of the evening with my husband. I found Zip N Steam bags at the grocery store last year and have been hooked ever since! Although the Glad brand ones are good too, they are great for veggies and shrimp since they have a flat gusseted bottom. I love that chicken stays moist, and fish is nice and flakey! I especially love throwing the bags away when I am done and not cleaning pans! I am no professional cook, by any means, but I do like simple and tasty! Enjoy!
