on

These no bake energy balls (recipe by Joey Mock RD, LD, CLT) make a delicious, quick, and convenient snack while serving as a healthier alternative to other heavily processed, convenience snack foods or bars. They are also easy to make and can be a fun and productive activity to do with your kids while they are homebound. They store well, so go ahead and make a double batch. Freeze extras in an airtight container with wax paper between rows. Get your ingredients together and start rolling!
