So Christmas is just a few weeks away and with Christmas, comes all the lovely cookies and treats which contain unbelievable amounts of calories. So what I am looking for are healthier versions of the usual Christmas cookies. If you have one and would like to share it would be greatly appreciated!

    I don't do healthy Christmas cookies.

    You can always look on skinnytaste, I'm sure she might have some.

    Oh, you could make some meringues?

    I thought about "lightening" up my Christmas baking...then I decided that nope, that is one area I am not willing to sacrifice. I will gladly give up pizza or regular ice cream even potato chips before I try to change my Christmas baking.

    I've been hearing about quinoa chocolate chip cookies.

    They don't look to be that bad in the calorie department.

    When making the cookies you can always use alternative ingredients example: instead of whole milk, use fat free milk, no sugar, things like that. Or just workout as much as you can to counter act it! :D
