There is so much to say when you are ceaselessly promoting the benefits of health and fitness, but there are also so many places to say. \u00a0 I post to my friends on Facebook<\/a>, am gathering a following on Twitter<\/a> and use the Beachbody Message Boards<\/a> to support my members and coaches.<\/p>\n

This afternoon, I am hosting the grand opening of the Beachbody Cafe Albuquerque, featuring our “Healthy Happy Hour”. \u00a0 We are serving “drinks” in the form of the two flavors of Shakeology<\/a> plus some of the recipes<\/a> that are becoming so popular with additions like bananas, peanut butter, fruit, etc.<\/p>\n

To go along with “drinks” we are going to have Tony Horton’s Vegan Chocolate Chip Cookies. \u00a0 As most of you know already, Tony is creator of P90X<\/a>. \u00a0 What most people don’t know is that he is also a vegan. \u00a0 Here’s his recipe (minus the cardamom – cost too much for just a pinch)<\/p>\n

Tony’s Favorite Vegan Cardamom Chocolate Chip Cookies<\/p>\n

<\/strong>2 c. Spelt Flour
\n3\/4 c. Rolled Oats
\n1\/2 c. chopped Walnuts
\n1 c. Grain Sweetened Chocolate Chips
\n1\/2 tsp. Sea Salt
\n3\/4 tsp. Baking soda
\n1\/8 tsp Cinnamon
\nPinch Ground Cardamom
\n2\/3 c. Agave Nectar
\n2\/3 c. Grapeseed Oil
\n2 TBL Water or Almond Milk
\n1 tsp. Vanilla Extract<\/p>\n

Preheat Oven to 350 degrees. Place dry ingredients in a large mixing bowl and stir to combine. Combine wet ingredients in a medium bowl and whisk together. Add wet mixture to dry and stir well with wood spoon. Refrigerate for 15 minutes.
\nPlace by the tablespoon on a baking sheet lined with Parchment paper. Bake for 10-12 minutes until golden brown. Remove and cool on a wire rack.
\nEnjoy with a glass of cold Almond Milk. <\/span><\/div>\n
