Energy Balls

I came across a recipe on Pinterest one day recently, but I can't remember where I saved it to...and now I can't find it to give the proper credit to whomever I got the general idea from, but these little protein packed energy balls are super yummy and a great little snack for before or after a good workout!


Ingredients:

1/2 cup Jif Reduced Fat Peanut Butter 760
1 cup dry oatmeal (I used an off brand but I think oats are pretty much...oats!) 300
1/3 cup coconut flakes (again I used the store brand) 94
1/4 cup honey 256
1 tsp vanilla

Mix all ingredients together and form into small bite size balls. I would reccomend quartering the mix after you've mixed it together, so you can measure out about 20 balls (5 balls for every quarter of the mixture).

Each ball (if you make 20) is about 70 calories and about 2 g of protein. You can easily eat 2-3 of these before or after a workout for a great source of protein and something sweet too!
