Hello Viewers,<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n

These cookies are easy to prepare and make just one batch, so it’s a quick job. If you do not wish to use the whole batch, these cookies freeze well. Whole grains and molasses are packed with fiber and iron. Walnuts, although not to be consumed in excess, are still excellent anti-inflammatory nuts that provide essential omega-3 fatty acids. They’re a sweet, low-fat, delicious treat you can enjoy without the guilt-or the cholesterol!<\/p>\n

This week’s recipe is courtesy of Jill Ovnik. Jill is a Cancer Project Food for Life class instructor who believes that education and exposure to the right foods can improve health and change lives. This is why she is so passionate about healthy cuisine and has taught the Food is Elementary curriculum. Jill is the founder and president of the website Vegan Gal (www.vegan-gal.com<\/a>). She is also the writer and producer of the DVD Change Your Food, Change Your Life<\/em>. Jill received her certification from the Food Studies Institute.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n

Preheat oven to 350 F. <\/p>\n

Combine flour, oats, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt in a small mixing bowl. Stir well and set aside. <\/p>\n

In another small bowl, combine molasses, brown sugar, rice milk, oil, and vanilla and stir well to combine. Add to dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Add walnuts and raisins. Mix well to combine, but do not over-mix the batter.<\/p>\n
