Peanut Butter Protein Balls

January 13, 20122 Comments

Oh my goodness, I just discovered a very awesome, yummy recipe!!!  It’s posted on Oxygen Magazine’s website (they have so many awesome recipes!!) and I thought I would share it with all of you!!!

These are fast, easy, healthy and an awesome pre or post workout snack!

Love it!

I’m going to a killer cardio class at the gym tomorrow morning and I plan to eat two of these on the drive there.  They will give me the energy I need without making me want to hurl.  Yay!

Peanut Butter Protein Balls

1/3 cup natural peanut butter
1/4 cup honey
1 scoop chocolate whey protein powder
3 tbsp ground flaxseed
3 tbsp dark chocolate chips

Mix together all ingredients.  It should be the consistency of Play-Doh.

Roll into 14 small balls (I made 15.)

Refrigerate to firm them up, overnight for best results.

Enjoy!
