Protein cookies are one of my favorite little snacks to keep in my purse or gym bag! Since I’m not big on protein shakes straight from a shaker (I’m more of a blended protein smoothie kind of girl) and it’s not always easy to get in a meal to feed those hungry muscles when I’m done at the gym, being able to scarf down a batch of cookies seems like a pretty darn good option if you ask me. No tupperware needed, no utensils, no mess, no fuss, and I can eat them straight from a baggie while driving and chauffeuring the kids around. And really? Cookies? You can’t even compare a boring protein shake to cookies… it’s not even in the same realm of thinking. So yes, protein cookies for the win, post workout, every time. It may take more time than simply throwing some powder and water in your shaker cup and eating a plain old apple when you are done training, but again, it’s cookies! How can you turn down cookies, especially when they look like this?
Yup, apple pie snicker doodle protein cookies post workout. It’s a beautiful thing…
