Laura’s Wholesome Junk Food was created by Dr. Laura Trice in efforts to provide healthy cookies that also tasted great. These cookies are much tastier and healthier than your typical health food. By removing unhealthy ingredients such as white flour, sugar and hydrogenated oils and replacing them with whole grains and whole sweeteners, Dr. Laura has created a heavenly snack the entire family can enjoy.
The worst part about dieting is depriving yourself from your favorite sweet treats. With Laura’s Wholesome Junk Food, you can enjoy the sweets and snacks without the guilt! Even if you’re not dieting, it is still nice to know there is a much healthier alternative to your favorite sugary deserts. These healthy cookies, also known as bite-lettes, are made with real, wholesome ingredients. You won’t have the urge to look up the ingredients because they most of them are all natural and they’re all easy to pronounce. All of the bite-lettes are Vegan, cholesterol free, free of hydrogenated oils and trans fats, while many of the varieties are also gluten-free. Additionally, there are no added artificial flavors, preservatives or color – just wholesome, pure, delicious, natural ingredients to satisfy your every craving!
Laura’s Wholesome Junk Food sent me seven of the following varieties to sample:
- Anna Banana Split
- Better Brownie Bite-lettes
- Cole’s Cashew Chocolate Chip
- Lemon-Vanilla
- Mint Double Fudge
- Oatmeal Chocolate Chip
- Oatmeal Raisin
- X-treme Fudge
My family began tearing into the cookie tubs and sampling each flavor. Each bite size cookie is exploding with flavor and is completely satisfying. The flavor is undeniably the best we have ever tasted in health food. I’m so used to healthy foods that taste like cardboard, so it was a nice relief to eat something that was both healthy and tasty.
Each tub of cookies are best if eaten before 6 months. Once you break the safety seal they should be eating within 2 weeks. Yet, if you want to make your cookies last even longer, you may refrigerate or freeze them for added freshness.
Each tub is $5.99 for around 15 cookies which is a great value considering the highest quality, all natural, whole ingredients used. One tub is sure to go fast, in which case Laura’s Wholesome Junk Food also has cookie variety packs available for purchase.
With more than 100 healthy snack recipes, The Wholesome Junk Food Cookbook will help you satisfy your snacking desires in a healthy way without sacrificing taste.
As a woman with Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome, my body often craves carbohydrates. On my own, I have such a difficult time turning unhealthy foods into healthy meals. Dr. Laura explains the differences between good carbs and bad carbs, making it easy to understand why our bodies need carbohydrates. This cookbook is full of healthier alternatives to the food we all love and enjoy.
Not only are the recipes easy to make, but they taste even better than the unhealthy versions. The Wholesome Junk Food Cookbook is great for cooks at any skill level, ideal for anyone searching for healthier food options and perfect for those living with a medical condition that restricts their diet.
The Wholesome Junk Food Cookbook is packed full of creative and delicious recipes that are sure to impress the entire family. I have been searching for healthy pizza recipes and finally found it in this book. I don’t cook as often as I should, but thanks to The Wholesome Junk Food Cookbook, I will be cooking a lot more from now on. This book includes countless kid-friendly recipes, including my favorite English Muffin Or Pita Pizzas.
The Wholesome Junk Food Cookbook may be purchased at Amazon.com, Barnes & Noble, Wal-Mart, and Borders for about $11.50-$12.99.
