Friday's Festive Fare: Healthy, Low-Calorie Holiday Cookies

Who says there's no such thing as healthy holiday treats? How about whole-grain gingersnap cookies, at only 55 calorie each?

Whole-Grain Gingersnaps

Who says there's no such thing as Healthy Holiday Treats!

Well, while we never want to make a steady diet of any gooey goodies, there has to be a little 'wiggle room' for, oh ... I don't know, maybe a whole-grain "gingersnap" here and there?

Especially this time of year. There is always a healthier way to go about creating something sweet to share, it just takes a little research. I got this fabulous treat from Good HouseKeeping of all places. A FABULOUS RESOURCE by the way. If the kids won't touch anything (or your husband or wife for that matter), that has the word 'healthy' attached to
it, who says we need to share?

In this case, what they don't know will only make you and the rest of your friends and loved ones healthier in the long run. I think my recipes should have proven that a long time ago, but just in case you need more convincing, it is Friday's Festive Fare after all ... so here we go.

Why not try these whole grain, good-for-you alternatives and bring some to
your next holiday bash to share!

I'm off for a little Holiday Winter Wonder Land Weekend in Reston Town
Square. Ever been there? It's a duplicate of "Rock Center" (in the Big Apple), if I've ever seen one.

SO, bake a batch or two, but eat ONLY a few and pass them along ...
