Bliss Berry Energy Balls

[ad_1]

I’m a huge fan of energy balls as a homemade, minimally processed way of powering your diet with a healthful snack. You can whip up these these no-bake, vegan, gluten-free balls in minutes in your food processor, then pack them away in a container in your freezer or fridge to grab all week long. Pack them in your gym bag, lunchbox, backpack, or picnic basket, and keep them on hand for a healthful snack or pre- or post-workout boost. At 110 calories each, these Bliss Berry Energy Balls provide a boost of slow-digesting carbs, different types of fibers, healthy fats, protein, vitamins, minerals, and phytochemicals.
