I recently started a new job and I am out and about in the city everyday. This can pose a problem for eating at traditional times, which can sometimes be rough for me. I have a confession to make, if I don’t eat regularly I turn into a grumpy six year old. If I miss a meal because I’m on the go, I suddenly find myself on the verge of a temper tantrum. It is a serious problem, but after many years, I have found that the solution is always having a snack on hand. This embarrassing fact about me and my new job have inspired me to experiment with delicious solutions to this problem.
For today’s post I made scrumptious peanut butter, coconut, chocolate energy balls. This recipe is super easy and perfect for healthy (ish) snacking!
The ingredients
Coconut, Chocolate, Oatmeal
Delicious chocolate chips
Adding the coconut flakes
Time for the peanut butter
Mix it up
Close up of the finished product

1 cup coconut flakes
1/2 cup ground flaxseed

How to (are you ready for how easy this is?)
