Here is the recipe:
( Via Yummy Mummy Kitchen )
First, I mixed the dry ingredients
Then I cut up some nuts and dark chocolate
I ran out of pecans but I had walnuts in my cupboard. Yay! So I substituted with walnuts. Mix Well! |
Then roll them into golf-sized balls & place on a cookie tray
The recipe yields 16 but I ended up with 19 (perhaps I made them too small). |
Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes and drizzle with melted dark chocolate, if you so please. Then, it's time to CHOW DOWN!
I chose not to drizzle them with chocolate (because I was lazy) but I bet they would taste even better with a little more chocolate ;)
These things tasted great! I'm excited to have them after a good workout or for a quick afternoon snack. Give them a try! I love eating food that I have prepared because I know exactly what I am putting into my body.
I hope you enjoy the recipe! Give it a try this weekend and let me know what you think.
Do you have a favorite snack recipe? I'd love to hear it! Please share.
These look delicious - I've been wanting a new recipe to try! What do you do with your left over pumpkin?
ReplyDeleteKayla, I typically either use it in muffins, whole grain pancakes or freeze it for another time. I hope you enjoy the recipe--it's so easy to make!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great recipe. I need to try it.
ReplyDeleteYou asked about podcasts. I've acquired my list by referral from friends mostly. The ones I listen to are all free on iTunes.
Jillian Michaels, This American Life, Another Mother Runner, Marathon Training Academy and Cut the Fat Weight Loss Blog are my favorites right now.
Thanks Kim! I'll have to look into those. :)
DeleteAshley, where do you find the chia seeds?
ReplyDeleteAlso, do you cook them? If so,what temp and how long? Or do you just mix and eat?
ReplyDeleteI bought my Chia Seeds at Trader Joes but I'm sure they carry them other places as well. As far as cooking these, no cooking necessary--refrigerate only. Took me about 5 mins to make!
