No Bake Energy Bites

Do you ever find a recipe on the back of a package and think wow, I should try that?

I always have great intentions but never actually follow through. But this time, I actually tried the recipe and I am so glad that I did. The following recipe was originally found on the back of a flaxseed meal bag from Trader Joes. I have modified it slightly.

These Energy Bites are extremely easy to make, are so delicious and are perfect for a pre or post workout snack. I bet your kids will even love them!
