We have been talking a lot in our house about healthy food choices, reducing sugar consumption, and healthy food substitutes. As we get closer and closer to returning back to school, we are trying to get some breakfasts and lunches prepped and in the freezer to make the transition back a little smoother. My girls found this recipe for No Bake Energy Bites and asked if they could make them on their own. We had all of the ingredients on hand, so I was happy to let them. They also decided (on their own) to omit the chocolate chips (good girls!). They loved these! I'm going to let them make a second (or third) batch to freeze because I'm pretty sure they are going to eat this first batch before we even make it to the freezer.
1 cup rolled oats
1/2 cup mini semi-sweet
chocolate chips
1/2 cup
ground flax seed
1/2 cup peanut butter
1/3 cup honey
1 teaspoon vanilla
extract
In a medium sized bowl, combine all of the ingredients. With your hands, roll into small (golf ball size) balls. Place on parchment lined cookie sheets. Place in freezer about 1 hour until set.
