MckCookies!

I have been dealing with my RA for about six months now....taking a ton of different medicines trying to get it under control.

After doing some research about foods that help with inflammation {the major annoyance with my RA right now}, I decided to try and add some more Omega 3's into our family's diet.

Flax seeds seem to be a great source, so I went looking for recipes!

I remembered this recipe from My Charming Kids and decided to give them a try.

The Twisted Oatmeal Raisin MckCookies turned out really good...and you can't even tell that there are a few SUPER strange unusual ingredients added in!



Cookies that are healthy, yummy, and are supposed to make me feel better! I think this may be the new favorite cookie at our house...but we will still have chocolate chip cookies every once in a while too!

  1. Hmmm...I'm gonna have to look into this. I wonder if that would help with my Fibro pain. Been having serious 'bouts the last couple of weeks and can't seem to get rid of it. It's especially horrible from 11pm-4am.

  2. They look great! It's hard to believe it's been six months since your diagnosis. I hope that the Omega 3's make a difference. :)

  4. Wouldn't that be great if the cookies help with your inflammation, then you would have a good excuse to eat sweets whenever you wanted! LOL.
