I am definitely a fan of cooking things that are super quick and tasty and don’t require much effort at all. Like many, I am time poor but I still strive to eat as clean as possible.

These protein balls are tasty and filling and keep you going. This recipe makes 18 small balls 🙂

You will need:

• ½ cup pumpkin seeds
• ½ cup walnuts
• ½ cup cashews
• 2 tbsp vanilla protein powder
• 1 tbsp mesquite powder – optional
• 2 tsp vanilla essence or 1 tsp vanilla powder
• 5 medjool dates – pitted
• 1 tbsp rice malt syrup
• 2 tbsp filtered water

Instructions

1. Process nuts and seeds in a food processor until a loose crumb is formed.
2. Add remaining ingredients and process until mixture sticks together.
3. Roll into balls.
4. Store in fridge for up to 2 weeks.
