I'm Joy! I'm a wife, former teacher (turned health coach), & Certified Nutrition Specialist...but most importantly: I LOVE FOOD! My goal for you: discover simple,
healthy, yum, here with me!! Happy eating!
INGREDIENTS:
1 cup old fashioned rolled oats little less than 1/4 cup honey
1/2 teaspoon coconut extract
1/2 teaspoon peppermint extract 1 scoop Vegan Chocolate Shakeology (see notes)
1/2 cup almond or peanut butter (I used almond)
2 TBSP coconut (or more)
4/5 crushed up peppermint( I used the soft melt in your mouth ones -see pic )
DIRECTIONS:
Mix all ingredients together and roll into balls. (Reserve some peppermint to roll balls in at the end)
Chill in refrigerator or freezer for 2-3 hours until ready to eat! (I prefer to keep mine in the freezer & pop them out when I need a sweet treat!)
I usually get about 20-24 protein bites from this recipe! If you don't have vegan chocolate shakeology you could do any regular chocolate protein powder.
