Starting off the New Year right with a delicious batch of Red Velvet Beet Chocolate Chip Cookies. The same great old fashioned taste just like grandma used too make but now recreated with a healthy twist!
So, what is going on with this healthy twist you ask? Keto. Low carb. Grain free.
This recipe will be featuring two of our incredible products. For that pre-workout boost we decided to add our newest product
BOCHA-BEETS for a healthy dose of nitric oxide to help enhance blood flow and increase levels of endurance during exercise. Beets are a powerful superfood and we source from organic, NON GMO beets at a 50:1 extract to deliver 5x the amount of nitrates as leading brands. Combine it with our Supreme Sugar Replacement BochaSweet and you have a great tasting "keto approved" cookie. With absolutely no grains used in this recipe, the taste is similar to an oatmeal chocolate chip cookie from the chewy texture.
The great thing about the BochaSweet lifestyle is the freedom to recreate all your favorite childhood treats from the comfort of your home knowing that you are on path to achieving all your health and fitness goals. Let's, together, make 2018 the most BOCHASWEET year yet!
