It can be challenging to get enough nourishment if you don't feel motivated to cook. Lately we have been enjoying Mama T protein cookies to fill the gap and thought we'd share for everyone to know about these delicious healthy treats. Food is so influential to mood and energy so getting enough protein and eating fibre to slow down sugar absorption can level out mood. Each cookie is a meal made with whole foods and you support a local Canadian company.We got ours at a Popeye's location but Sobey's has them too now.
