Oh kale yes, kale in a cookie. This is basically a superfood treat! Sure, go ahead, eat two or three, it's GOOD for you.

These cookies are soft and delicious. When you bit into the walnut, the texture difference is divine, I love it. Feel free to use a cookie cutter to put these into fun shapes. I think hearts and trees would be great.

This recipe is somewhat versatile as well. The kale, coriander, walnuts, lecithin, and stevia are interchangeable with other ingredients. You could easily add in some other superfoods while you're at it as well or try out some substitutes with other greens or supplement powders. So go ahead, play with your health food.
