Chocolate Zucchini Cookies

This recipe and the image is from a fabulous website by Amber Baldwin. I encourage you to visit the site. In fact, I insist you go visit the site. The Ideal Protein Recipe page alone is worth the browsing – http://www.lamberjules.com/ideal-protein-recipes/.

There are 10 recipes on the page. But not just the recipes, Ms. Baldwin has gone to the considerable effort to show step by step how to make the recipe and has included wonderful pictures that make you drool. You can almost taste each recipe you look at.

There are many other recipes on the website but while you are doing the Ideal Protein protocol you must stick to the recipes on the page referenced above. When you are at your goal weight however give the other recipes a whirl.

While you are there browse through the rest of Ms. Baldwin`s material. She gives a personal blow by blow of her own weight loss journey and there are untold lessons to be learned while reading her articles and stories. I tip my hat to Ms. Baldwin. It is not easy to put yourself out for scrutiny the way she has and we all can recognize ourselves in several parts of her journey. Thank you Amber Baldwin.
