Health and fertility benefits of Chocolate Meringue Smooches

Nuts are a natural source of Inositol, a derivative of Vitamin B (which is often prescribed in the form of supplements for women with PCOS). Inositol can effectively control the symptoms of PCOS by reducing insulin resistance and improving insulin sensitivity. Walnuts are low on the glycemic index. What’s more, they also lower the glycemic index of other foods that you eat in conjunction with these nuts. Any kind of nuts provide a healthy source of fat and a great way to encourage PCOS weight loss.

Ingredients

1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 cup walnuts, chopped (or pecans)
1/2 cup crushed saltine crackers
3 egg whites, stiffly beaten
1 cup confectioner's sugar
1 (6 oz) package semi-sweet chocolate chips

Instructions

Preheat oven to 325 °.
Using a large bowl, fold the confectioner's sugar a little at a time into the stiffly beaten egg whites. Add the crackers, nuts, and vanilla, and fold in gently. Melt the chocolate over a double boiler and allow to cool slightly. Fold the melted chocolate into the egg white mixture. Using a greased cookie sheet, drop the mixture by rounded half teaspoonfuls. Place in the oven and bake for 12 minutes. Remove cookies from oven and repeat until batter has been used up.
