Energy Bites recipe

Do you need a quick but healthy snack? Well then you’ll love Energy Bites! But do they actually give you energy? Yes they do! And kids love them. This is one healthy thing you’ll get kids to eat.

• 1 1/2 cups almond meal
• 25 medjool dates
• 1/4 cup cocoa powder (unsweetened)
• 1/8 cup chia seeds

In a food processor, process dates until they form a ball. Add almond meal, cocoa, and chia and process until well blended. The mix should feel kind of moist or sticky.

Remove mix from food processor and pinch enough to make a 1-inch ball. Squeeze mixture and roll in your hands until a ball is formed. Repeat! It should make 20-24 balls.

NOTE: If you can’t find almond meal, you can make it! Just put almonds in a food processor and process until they turn into a coarse meal. Food Processor should only be used by adults! If you’re a kid, have adult supervision.
