Got Protein??

 

 

Within 30-60 minutes following a hard workout or run, reach for a healthy snack with clean ingredients without sacrificing taste.  For recovery and repair, it's best to consume a mix of carbs, proteins, healthy fats and sodium.  This easy and addictive treat is my favorite post-workout go-to.  

 

Peanut butter oat power balls (gf, df):

1 1/2 cups no sugar added peanut butter

1/2 cup organic honey (could use agave as a vegan option)

1 1/3 cup organic gluten free oats

1/2 cup plant based vanilla protein powder

1/2 cup mini dark chocolate chips (Enjoy Life brand are great)

1/2 cup gluten free organic rice crispy cereal (optional for a little crunch)

Pinch of sea salt

 

Mix all ingredients together and roll into one inch balls.  Place on wax paper and refrigerate until hardened.  Store in the fridge or freezer.
