chocolate peanut butter protein balls {recipe}

Are you like me in that you're always looking for healthy snacks?

...for yourself AND your kids?

I'm excited about this one because not only do my kids love all the ingredients, but it's SUPER easy to make.

Honey, quick oats, peanut butter, and chocolate protein powder. That's it.

Ben & I work out a lot so we use protein powder regularly anyway. We use albupro by Max Muscle, which is from egg whites.

We also love any of the Justin's nut butter products. The above is almond butter but we also have the regular peanut butter and {my favorite} the chocolate hazelnut spread. Yum!

Like all kids I'm assuming, ours love putting honey on pretty much everything and though it's been a few years since we switched to agave instead, they've never noticed!

Ben's office is just about 5 minutes from our house...now you know what we do when he comes home to say hi. We make protein balls.

After tossing all the ingredients into a bowl, simply stir until well mixed.

I asked him to add extra protein powder because I wanted a more chocolatey taste.

Ahem, I mean I wanted to make sure it was chock full of protein.

After you feel it's mixed enough, place it into the fridge for around an hour to harden a little so it doesn't stick to your hands as much as you roll it.

Then roll away!
