Hi all! I ran across this facebook page that makes a new recipe every Friday from the Syntrax Matrix & Nectar protein powders & thought I would share this one & once I figure out the nutritional info on the other recipe I will post that one as well. So here we go Guiltless Chewy Oat Chocolate Chip Cookies. I scooped these out with a melon ball scooper & it made 28 cookies for me. These cookies are more bread like than cookie like & one fills me for a while. They are good though. I added the Mint Cookie protein powder in mine. I will probably do a whole scoop rather than her 1/4c. next time. Here is the link to this recipe.

I will just go ahead & share the link to the other recipe. I have not made these yet so I'm not sure how many the batch will make. Here is the recipe to Protein packed Mini Double Chocolate Muffins. They look so good & I think the Mint Cookie protein powder will go so well with this one. It's on my next to make list.

Like I said The Kitchen Whisperer is on Facebook & introduces a new Syntrax recipe every Friday.
Enjoy!

I made a large cookie sheet and based it on two slices per person serving 6 people
1 whole cauliflower head
4 cups of shredded mozzarella low fat or fat free ( I used low fat)
8 egg whites
2 tablespoons minced garlic
2 tsps Italian seasoning
Toppings - I used sliced plum tomatoes, fresh chopped basil and some sauteed fresh spinach leaves
So first you need to rice your cauliflower. This means you need to put it in your food processor and process until it looks like a flour consistency.
Next I cooked the cauliflower in a microwave safe container for about 9 minutes
Mix in together the cheese, eggs, garlic and seasoning then combine with the cauliflower.
Generously grease with PAM a large cookie tray or two small pizza trays
Spread cauliflower mixture evenly onto pan
Cook at 450 for 15 minutes
After removing the Pizza Crust I added my toppings and sprinkled a little extra cheese on top... cook for 1-2 more minutes until cheese melts.
