Clean Eating Power Balls

This is the second time I've made these tasty little snacks. The first time I went exactly by the recipe in the Clean Eating Cookbook Stripped! The second time, I made a few changes, which I think make them taste a wee bit better. Even Brady likes them now, which is amazing since he usually just snarls his nose up at anything "healthy". Here's how I did it:



NO-BAKE POWER BALLS From the Clean Eating Cookbook Stripped!

1/4 cup uncooked rolled oats
1/4 cup toasted pumpkin seeds
1/4 cup dried cranberries
1/4 cup raisins
1 scoop of chocolate whey protein powder*
1/4 cup millet
2 TB ground flaxseed
3/4 cup peanut butter
2 TB dark molasses
1 TB agave nectar*
1/2 tsp real vanilla extract
1/8 cup chia seeds*
1/4 cup semi sweet dark chocolate chips*

Mix all ingredients together and form into balls. I ended up making about 15, which were rounded tablespoons. The chocolate and peanut butter together, with the chocolate chips - OH MY!!
