Easy Energy Balls
If you are looking for a quick snack, then energy bars can
be a great option. However, the bars that you buy in the shops tend to be laden
with additives, refined sugar and general rubbish. If you want to be healthy
and know exactly what it is you are eating, then the best thing to do is make
your own.
It’s so easy to make your own energy balls and takes no time
at all. Raid your cupboard of all natural, nutty and fruity ingredients and
simply blend them all together and roll into ball shapes. Dip in chocolate or
any topping you desire and store in the fridge. You can try out any combination
of ingredients that sounds tasty.
Here are some I made the other day. I literally opened my
cupboard, pulled out a variety of bags including; ground almonds, flaked
almonds, shredded coconut, cashew nuts and dates. Blended them all together
with a little Sweet freedom and rolled them into balls. I then melted some
coconut oil with cacao powder and dipped in the energy balls, covering the
tops.
They don’t look like anything special you would serve at a
dinner party, but they really do taste great and give you a quick boost! Perfect
as a pre-workout snack.
(In fact, Mr Dave Kyle, Les Mills UK head trainer, just had
2 of mine before his workout – I’m basically famous!)
