Protein Balls

The perfect mindful snack! These balls are full of energy, good fat, and protein. One ball is approx. 80-120 Calories (depends on the size). You will no longer need to buy pre-packaged bars again!

I make these balls weekly for our family and if we run out, everyone notices. Incorporating these balls or something like protein balls into your diet is a huge step towards cutting down on costs, reducing your carbon footprint, eating mindfully, and having a plan so that you are never without fuel. Remember, one of the most important steps towards your body trusting you and working efficiently is to keep it fueled properly. 

Ingredients

1/2 C Peanut Butter 

1/4 C Coconut oil 

1/4 C honey 

1/4 C honey

2 scoops protein powder 

1/4 C Chia seeds 

Up to 2-3 C quick oats or regular rolled oats pulsed in blender to break up oats. Start by adding 1 cup at a time. Depending on your oats, you may need more or less than 2 cups.  

1/4 C cocoa nibs or mini choc chips

Directions

Combine wet ingredients into a glass bowl. Microwave for about 20-30 seconds or just mix throughly until coconut oil is spread evenly and no lumps. Mix well and add chia seeds and protein powder and mix until creamy whipped texture. Add more honey if needed to taste and add oats slowly, 1 cup at a time. Mix well. If mixture is too dry, toss in some water, just a little bit at a time, until you reach your desired consistency.  

Keep refrigerated - these are best when cold.
