Peanut butter chocolate chip cookies made out of quinoa? Yea, I was surprised too the first time I read that. I saw a Team Beach Body coach share this recipe from the TBB website and I had to share it with y’all as well. It sounds really strange but I must say I was highly impressed with how good these were. I had some coworkers and family try them and they agreed that these were really good. I got the recipe from TBB here.
