Peanut Butter Protein Balls






Most mornings I love to eat some peanut balls. My kids love them too.



This is a most requested recipe so I thought I'd share it with you. Unfortunately I do not know the protein content of the 'balls' but you can estimate if you like by looking the protein count of the powder I use. Suffice it to say, they are great. taste like Reeses pb cups but so much healthier.

Protein balls
1 c. Soy Protein Powder
1 c. natural peanut butter (peanuts only..Trader joes has a great one...smoooth)
1/2 c. honey

Mix it all together in a bowl until well mixed. Break off part and shape into bals, about the size of a small gum ball. (ot whatever size you prefer)
I refridgerate mine although it is not necessay.

My kids love to add them to their school lunches. They are a great snack first thing in the morning before a w/o. Take with a big glass of water. it's always good to start your day with some protein as it helps keep you blood sugar level through out the day, give you lots energy and fills you up.
This is the protein powder I use. It is non-GMO soy mix. Really yummy and can also be used as a shake for breakfast or a snack.
