So the brother comes up to me sometime last
week and told me that he had some really nice protein balls. But hearing him
say that, usually does say a lot about the food. He is one very picky eater.
However he has been very adamant about me trying it. Perhaps it would help his point of telling me, and that point is to
make some for him.
I’m not complaining about him asking me to
make things for him – as a matter of fact, I should probably appreciate it now
and feel honoured. For once he gets himself a better half, he would be off in his own world and forget the fact
that he even has a sister!
The recipe is from his mate’s girlfriend,
Miss NL. It’s super easy and super quick to make. Chuck, blend, roll, refrigerate!
[Protein balls]
Prep
time: 20 minutes
Difficulty:
Easy
Ingredients:
½ cup protein (plain or vanilla)
¼ cup raw cacao powder
5 fresh dates, seeds removed
4-tablespoon coconut oil (or nut butter)
Shredded or desiccated coconut
Skim/Soy Milk (only a little added to your
mix IF it is too dry)
Throw all your ingredients in the
blender/food processor and blend it through until it combines
How to know if it is of the right
consistency, is when you see all the ingredients are sticking together in one
big clump. When it actually doesn’t look very pretty.
Roll them into balls, to whatever size you
prefer. Naturally, little ones you get more. Bigger, well not as much. Roll
them around in the coconut.
Place in fridge, and keep them stored in
the fridge.
BOOM! Then they are done and hello healthy
little morsels!
gah! been meaning to make these protein balls! love how they are super duper easy!
