oh my God must must must do.

We are totally doing this one day.

It’s a cold rainy day but I still want to keep up my fitness so I’m using one of my at home equipment free plans!

You can find more of them here.

I have a small dorm room and I love that I can still work up a sweat and burn about 250 calories without having to make the long trek to and from the gym. Best of all I don’t have any excuses not to get my workout in because all I need is myself and a clock!

Raw Thin-Mint Brownies

• 1 cup walnuts (120g)
• 1 and 1/3 cups pitted dates (230 grams) (I highly recommend Sunmaid, because they’re softer.)
• 1 tsp vanilla extract
• 5 tablespoons cocoa powder
• A few drops pure peppermint extract (depending on how minty you want them… Start with less; you can always add more.)
• Optional: for even more chocolate flavor, add chocolate chips. Or add cacao nibs.
• Optional: tiny dash of salt (I always add this and recommend it.)

Directions: Combine all ingredients, using a food processor. (No need to blend the dates first; I just blend everything all at once. But if you use a Magic Bullet, you might want to do it in batches. I’ve not tried this in a regular blender and therefore can’t vouch for it.) Form into brownies or balls or bars… or even cookie-cuttered shapes!

Peanut Butter Oatmeal Sandwich Cookies

INGREDIENTS

For sandwiches:

1 1/2 cups whole wheat flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
1 cup vegetable oil
1 cup Sucanat (or sugar)
2 eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla
2 cups quick oats

For creamy filling:

3 ripe bananas
3 tablespoons natural peanut butter (I prefer crunchy)
3 teaspoons honey

DIRECTIONS

1. Preheat oven to 375° F. Lightly spray a cookie sheet with cooking spray.
2. Mix flour, baking soda, and salt in a small bowl and set aside.
3. In a larger bowl, beat the oil, sugar, eggs, and vanilla until fluffy. Pour the flour mixture and oats into the bowl and mix well.
4. Place one inch balls of dough on cookie sheets. You’ll have enough dough for 36 small cookies.
5. Bake for 8-10 minutes, removing from oven when the edges are slightly tan. After a minute transfer the cookies to a cooling rack.
6. While the cookies are baking and cooling, prepare the filling. In a bowl mash the bananas with the peanut butter and honey.
7. Place a dollop of filling on one half of the bottom of a cookie and then top it with another cookie.

   Makes about 36 sandwiches.
