I was so excited for this post! I had this incredible 20-minute meal that Mark and I adore locked and loaded for you today, but once I looked at the pictures…
…well, I knew no one would make it based on what the pictures looked like.
So you’re getting cookies today!
(I’d say that’s a fair compromise, no?)Read More
CHRISTMAS COOKIES. To tell you the truth, I never really gravitated towards cookies in years past. Cookies just don’t excite me as much as a fudgy, chewy brownie, a seeeeeriously dark piece of chocolate cake, or some fresh chocolate-dipped fruit.
Until this year.
This year, I’ve gone completely #cookiecrazy. It has been a freakin’ winter wonderland here in the apartment for monhts. Mark and I have pretty much been swimming in Christmas cookies since I wrote my eCookbook a couple of months ago. Not that I’m complaining. It’s been a delicious situation, but a situation nonetheless.
(shameless plug: you can STILL sign up to receive my eCookbook, The Skinny Santa: your essential guide to healthier holiday treats, in the month of December fo’ free! Doooo eeeet!)
So naturally, I’ve been fan-girling over all of the insanely incredible cookie recipes floating around the interwebs this year. From gingerbread, to snickerdoodles, to peppermint, to peanut butter…it’s kind of amazing just how many flavor combinations make up this yummy time of year! So I’ve rounded up 18 of my favorite gluten free vegan Christmas cookie recipes for your viewing (and drooling) pleasure here today! I hope you find some fun cookie inspiration for your happy, somewhat healthy, holiday celebrations!

Welcome to your second delicious dose of #oatweek! Seriously guys, I’m oatmeal-obsessive; it’s one of my all-time favorite foods, and I have it every single day…at least once a day.
You may not know it, however, by looking at the serious lack of oats in my recipe feed. What in the world was I doing for an entire year?!
I mean, sure, we have Banana Bread Granola, Samoa Overnight Oats, and we can’t forget about this super-comforting Coffee Cake Baked Oatmeal. But these recipes are merely scratching the surface of all of the incredible edibles that oats can be a part of!
On Monday we tackled one of my childhood favorite cookies, Peanut Butter No-Bake Cookies (must.make.new.batch.now.). Today, we’re targeting another: Oatmeal Raisin Cookies!

BIG NEWS!! I’m SO excited to be announcing the start of my partnership with one of my all-time favorite brands, Bob’s Red Mill! Serious fan-girling happening over here!
This post is the first recipe for “Fooduzzi’s Oat Week!”, a recurring blog series sponsored by BRM where I focus on creative, crave-able oatty recipes! I of course needed to dive into the wonderful world of Christmas cookies in the first week of the series!
These cookies were born simply out of a craving. A hardcore cookie craving.
A couple of months ago, Mark turned to me and simply said, “I want a cookie.” And when you say you want food to a food blogger, you’re definitely going to get food.
So what’s your favorite dessert?
The one that makes your mouth water. The one that makes you go weak at the knees. The one that you’d work out extra hard at the gym for.
You know the one I’m talking about.Read More
I’m not going to lie: I love the idea of granola bars. They’re a quick and easy, go-to snack that can be made with healthy whole foods.
That being said, I am so not a fan of the whole execution of the lowly granola bar. Read More
I owe an apology to Peanut Butter Lover’s Anonymous. I tote my devotion to the sticky, gooey, creamy spread of lovin’ all the time; however, peanut butter has been surprisingly absent from Fooduzzi since its inception. I am a horrible member of this organization. Please excuse my ignorance.
I was, am, and always will be a peanut butter fiend. My faithfulness to this nut butter ran deep as a child: PB Cap’n Crunch was my go-to breakfast, I was convinced that Reese’s eggs were gifts sent from the gods, and chewy no-bake cookies were my most-requested road trip food when we stopped at Sheetz. …it’s a Pittsburgh thing.Read More
