Nutritious Oatmeal Cookies


Submitted by: Adrienne Jacobs

Cream together:
1 c. shortening (I use canola oil instead)
2 c. brown sugar
2 eggs
1 tsp. vanilla

Add and mix well:
1 1/4 c. whole wheat flour (or white)
1 tsp. baking soda
1/2 tsp. salt
3 c. quick oats
2 Tbsp. finely ground flax seed (this is optional. It adds omega-3's and fiber)
optional ingredients: nuts, cinnamon, nutmeg, 1 c. chocolate chips

Bake in 350 oven for 8-10 minutes until light brown. Makes 5 dozen.
