Energy Bites

These super delicious easy no bake energy bites are a great snack before a sports practice! They are made with good ingredients that will keep you full all practice long!

I love peanut butter and these energy bites defiantly have the perfect amount. Also the chocolate chips give them a bit of a Reese's taste. YUM. My whole family loves this recipe and I even have to stop my sister from eating them all!

My mom says that its good to meal plan, so I recommend making a batch of these over the weekend and then eating them through out the week. Because their super easy, making them can fit into any busy schedule. And, if your running low on time just skip chilling them before rolling them into balls. Cause you have to refrigerate them anyways, so two birds one stone (that's a saying right?). If you didn't think theses could get any better than guess what... you don't have to bake them! So your kitchen won't get really hot if you make them in the summer. No more writing! Time to make and eat these utterly delicious energy bites!
