Don’t waste anymore time strolling the protein bar isle at the grocery store… I got great news for you!
Have you ever found yourself lost in the protein bar isle at the grocery store looking at endless nutrition labels and finding something extremely wrong with almost all of them? Well, I have! That’s why I rarely eat protein bars at the convenience store anymore. They are packed with artificial flavors and additives.

So, I rely on this simple, yet tasty treat to help me power through my day. They tickle my tastebuds, helping me feeling energetic and strong! Not sluggish and lazy! Read on for my quick recipe to make your own protein balls at home and take with you anywhere you go! ... or watch my meal prep video for more great tips!
Ingredients:
