Oats On The Go

These Super Oatmeal Cookies will be your new favorite portable snack. Ideal for quick breakfasts (paired with fresh fruit or greek yogurt), long car trips, summer hikes, or picnics, you can take them anywhere. You could describe these as a “scuffin” actually. Part scone, part muffin, part cookie. Naturally I like them best toasted and crumbled over yogurt and smoothies.  : )

Super Nutrition

Made with Quaker Old Fashioned Oats, homemade oat flour, flax, carrots, apple, and pumpkin, these cookies are super good! The oats + oat flour make them 100% whole grain, and they have 3 grams of fiber per cookie. Plus, the only added sugar comes from a touch of honey, so they have less than 5 grams of sugar per cookie. You can also make them with Quaker’s Gluten Free Oats for a gluten-free recipe.

Homemade Oat Flour

Making oat flour is super easy if you have a food processor. Just blend rolled or quick oats for one minute until you have a fine flour.

While you have the food processor out, go ahead and grate your carrots and apples. If you don’t have a food processor, you can use pre-ground flour and grate the produce on a box grater.

Mix Wet, Mix Dry, Mix Wet Into Dry

Form Cookies

Since these cookies aren’t heavy on the butter, they won’t spread while baking, so form them into cookie shapes and place on parchment.

Bake at 350* for 15 minutes

Bake for 15 minutes until edges are crispy and golden.

Post-Workout Coffee Protein Shake

Once again, I’ve partnered with Brother  to show the versatility of the  Brother P-touch Label Maker , especially when it comes to fitness and gym equipment.  As always, thank you for supporting CNC! I receive quite a few questions from readers about what I eat before, during, and after workouts, so I decide to share those with you today. It changes a little bit from workout-to-workout, but I keep a general framework in mind. BEFORE (approximately 30 minutes): I typically eat a small snack made up of mostly simple carbs since they provide quick energy. Some favorites: Half of a banana or another piece of whole fruit, a protein bar, handful of raisins, or a rice cake with jam and sometimes nut butter (it just depends how hungry I am and the timing of my workout). DURING : I typically don’t consume anything during my workouts, unless they’re longer than 90 minutes, like if I’m training for a long distance race (i.e. half marathon). In that case, I’ll take an energy gel and water ev

Here’s my Evernote review and all the great features you can use to make your thoughts, notes, and files easy to find, sort, and save.  This post is sponsored by Evernote .  Raise your hand if your digital life feels cluttered. If we were in a room, almost everyone’s hand would go up, including mine!  With so much of our lives digitized these days, it’s hard not to get overwhelmed with all the information we need to save and reference. And because computers, the internet, and living in email and calendars are relatively new to humans, we as a society are still learning good systems. If I asked you to organize a paper filing cabinet, you’d probably have a few good ideas on how to do that. But if I asked you to organize a computer hard drive, many of us get stumped on the sheer volume of files and the endless ways to sort.  The good news is there are apps that make this process more intuitiv
