Medifast Recipe Using Oatmeal: No-bake Cookies

For more information about Medifast and the Take Shape for Life program, click here.

2 Tbsp. Real Butter
2 Tbsp. Milk
2 Packets Stevia
2 tsp. Unsweetened Cocoa
1/8 tsp. Real Vanilla Extract
1 Packet Medifast Oatmeal

Melt butter in small saucepan and add milk, Stevia, & cocoa. Bring to a light boil, stirring constantly, but be careful not to burn. Add vanilla extract and then oatmeal and stir quickly for less than 30 seconds. It will all clump together very quickly and be ready to dump onto a plate or wax paper. Immediately separate it into about four pieces so that it cools more quickly. It does not need to cool all the way and the cookies will not harden like regular no-bakes, but they taste amazing! Enjoy! –Julie

Medifast Recipe Using Hot Cocoa: Peanut Butter Cup

For more information about Medifast and the Take Shape for Life program, click here.

Chocolate Layer:
1 packet Medifast Hot Cocoa
1 tsp Hersey’s Unsweetened Cocoa
1 packet Stevia
3 Tbsp cold water

Mix ingredients together and pour ½ of the mixture into bottom of small bowl. Set aside.

Peanut Butter Layer:
2 Tbsp natural peanut butter
3 packets Stevia

Mix peanut butter & Stevia well and dollop onto prepared chocolate later. Pour remaining chocolate on top and freeze until set (approximately 2 hours)

P.S. This recipe does not taste all that good when the ingredients are warm. It is only after it is frozen that it tastes like a peanut butter cup. It is also very rich and I can usually only eat about half of it at a time.

Medifast Recipe Using Pancake Mix and Oatmeal: Crumb Cake

For more information about Medifast and the Take Shape for Life program, click here.

Preheat oven to 350º

For Cake:

1 Medifast Pancake Mix
¼ teaspoon Baking Powder
¼ teaspoon Vanilla Extract
1 Tablespoon Liquid Egg Whites
¼ cup Water

Add pancake mix and baking powder to shaker jar, add egg whites, vanilla and water, cover and shake five times (do not stir or over-shake). Pour into an oven-proof, non-stick pan that has been lightly oiled with a bit of olive oil or non-stick spray.

For Crumb Mix:

1 Medifast Maple & Brown Sugar Oatmeal Mix
¼ teaspoon Cinnamon
1 packet Stevia
2 Tablespoons Real Butter, softened

Cut in dry ingredients into the butter until it resembles crumbs. Sprinkle the crumb mixture on top of the cake batter and bake at 350 degrees for 11-12 minutes. Crumbs will fall down slightly into the cake batter and will probably not ‘brown up’ like a usual crumb cake. This recipe makes two Medifast meals.

Medifast Recipes

For more information about Medifast and the Take Shape for Life program, click here.

Note: these recipes are not necessarily Medifast-friendly, nor endorsed by Medifast! They just happen to utilize Medifast meals and/or supply ways to incorporate everyday food modifications into our Lean & Green meals. Most of these would be more suitable for the transition or maintenance stages of our new lifestyle, rather than the fat burn stage. They have mostly been modified from recipes I’ve borrowed from others and I’m thankful to those who have paved the way! Bon Appetite! –Julie
