Healthy No-Bake Protein Balls Recipe

This ball of energy is the easiest recipe that is high in fibre and protein! It makes the perfect pre or post workout snack you can also have it on the go. 



I made five large sized protein balls.

You will need;
  1. Oats
  2. Peanut butter
  3. 1 scoop of protein powder
  4. Milk of your choice
  5. Chia seeds click here for benefits
  6. Dried fruit 
  7. Nuts of your choice 
  8. Desiccated coconut (for coating) 
Mix all the ingredients adding the milk slowly. If it's too wet add more dry ingredients and vice versa. Wet your hands to prevent sticking. Roll into a ball and coat with coconut. Refrigerate or freeze!

Try it Out Thursday #4

Do not fear, post #3 is here.


Hydr-8 water bottle worked pretty well for me. I drink a lot of water daily so it wasn't much of a challenge. I would highly recommend this to people who don't like drinking water or are trying to be healthier. The insulator keeps the water cool so it's pretty refreshing! It's on sale for $9.99 for the month of September so do what you gotta' do.

Chia seeds are nature's #1 superfood. It's got more health benefits that you can imagine... 
higher in potassium than a banana, high in protein, and fibre etc. With a healthy lifestyle I find it hard to feel full. For those watching their weight, chia seeds  expand in your belly, helping you to feel full, eat less, and ultimately shed pounds! I bet that's something your doctor never told you! I plan to to sprinkle it on foods, make a chia drink, chia seed pudding, add to smoothies etc. Stay tuned for the recipes if it turns out well.

Have you heard of/tried chia seeds? Will you be trying it out? What do you want me to try out next?
