Health Benefits of Oatmeal Chocolate Thumbprint Cookies

Oatmeal is a strong food choice. It gives fiber that helps your gut work well. The fiber also keeps you full. The cookies have key nutrients. Add a scoop of Chocolate Protein Mix for more protein and flavor. This mix adds taste and extra protein to your snack.

A few cookies at once make a good post-workout treat or a midday snack that lifts you up!
