Energizing Protein Balls

 There are several ways you can makes theses protein ball. I want to make these as healthy as I can and without preservatives and other unwanted food additives. I made this batch with home Made peanut butter. Yum!! I'll post that recipe soon!! 

Homemade Peanut Butter!!

I added Shaklee Energizing Soy Protein Powder.  There are so many great health benefits with a good Non-GMO Soy Protein. Shaklee's protein along with healthy diets helps:

• Helps build muscle, skin, and hormones
• Supports the immune system
• Retains normal cholesterol levels
• Promotes heart and prostate health.
• Contains soy isoflavones, which can help minimize hot flashes and promote breast health

 I also added a Gluten Free Non-GMO Flax Seed. Which is a good source of Fiber, OMEGA-3 fatty acids and a wide range of vitamins and minerals.

 

 I used Bob’s Red Mill Gluten Free Whole Grain Rolled Oats

My kids LOVE these delicious protein balls. So I wanted to share them with you all! They are great for parties, dessert, a quick pick me up snack.

Peanut Butter Protein Balls

Mix all ingredients into a large mixing bowl. Roll into 1 inch balls. Press down on a plate or cookie sheet until slightly flattened. Press a large, dark chocolate chip into the middle of each cookie. Refrigerate or keep at room temperature.

**If you are adding mini chocolate chips vs. large chips then mix chips in the mix before rolling. 

This takes 5 minutes or less to mix; 5-10 minutes to roll into balls.
