About Chris Sloan

Chris Sloan, OPTAVIA Coach 75lbs weight loss

My name is Chris Sloan and I, like so many others struggled with my weight for years not realizing the toll being overweight was taking on my body. At the beginning of 2021 I began to take my weight loss efforts seriously and have lost 75 lbs so far on the OPTAVIA optimal weight 5 in 1 Plan! It's been amazing, and while my journey isn't over, I'm well on my way!

When I started I had a hard time finding the top OPTAVIA 5&1 recipes, so I was so inspired to build this website to help compile some of what I felt are the best OPTAVIA recipes around. I'm happy to share it with you as well!

For those not familiar, OPTAVIA is not some fad diet but instead is a program designed to help those who are looking to lose weight make better choices with their health and wellness via better habits.

We've worked hard to make sure that all OPTAVIA 5 and 1 recipes listed are approved for the OPTAVIA optimal weight 5 and 1 plan.

1/4 tsp Unsweeted Original (optional)*
1 tbsp Butter (optional)*
1/4 tsp Vanilla Extract

Lean & Green Silky Peanut Butter Cookies Instructions

Preheat oven to 350*F. Line a baking sheet with foil and spray with cooking spray.
In a medium-sized bowl, mix together the first two ingredients. Add the milk (1/4 cup unsweetened original, vanilla almond or cashew milk), butter or (margarine, melted or softened), and vanilla extract, stir until well combined (it will appear dry, but continue mixing until a dough forms - add another tablespoon of milk if necessary)
Using a small cookie scoop, scoop out dough into 8 small balls, and place onto the foil-lined, lightly greased baking sheet. Using a fork, flatten the mounds to create a criss-cross pattern. Sprinkle tops with salt. (optional)
Bake until edges are lightly browned, approximately 10 to 12 minutes. Serve with unsweetened original, or vanilla almond milk if desired (optional). (1 cup = 1 condiment)
