If you're like us, we love snacks. Fruit, veggies, string cheese and nuts are great choices, but if you are looking for a new and healthy option, we recommend trying these energy balls. While we've been making energy balls for years, this recipe from Trader Joe's is the best one yet. We stuck to the recipe, but they would also be delicious with shredded coconut, dried berries or other additions. Easy, quick, healthy AND delicious. Clean-up was a breeze, and they took less than 10 minutes to make. We'll warn you though: These are extremely addicting. We bet you can't eat just one. We can't! We hope you enjoy these as much as we do!
