    I love the Vanilla. I put 1 cup water, 3 scoops Vanilla Nutrimeal, 1/2 banana, 5-7 chunks pinaple (I have the banana & pineapple chuncks in my freezer in small snack bags for convenience and the frozen fruit makes it more of a frozen drink). Then I add 1 scoop Fibergy, 1 Tbsp Hemp Hearts, 1 Tbsp ground flax seed and blend.

The dough will be stiff. Add chocolate chips now. Mix well
    Drop 1 TBSP cookie dough on to a baking sheet. Bake for 10 minutes, or until lightly golden brown on the edges. The middle will not look like they are done. Let cool on baking sheet for 3-4 minutes, then move to cooling rack until completely cooled.
