No- Bake Energy Balls

Here is a snack that passes as healthy but tastes good enough that it could replace your dessert! So who wouldn't love this recipe? Not to mention they are quick and easy – and they require no cooking or baking of course. I could easily finish off the whole batch myself. They are so addictive and yes they do taste like a treat. They remind me of something like a granola bar and even more so of a peanut butter oatmeal cookie dough. They make for a great snack or even grab a few on the go for a quick breakfast. These are loaded with protein and fiber so they curb those afternoon munchies (you know around 4:00 when it’s like – is it dinner time yet?).My kids love them too, so when I make them, its a guarantee that I have to make a double batch!
