Energy Protein Bites

I have been telling myself for weeks that I needed to make some more Shakeology energy protein bites. They are so easy and addicting. Instead I have just been going and buying Lara bars, which are just as delicious as well. Yesterday Ella and I were in the kitchen, making brownies as part of Mother/Daughter day. I asked her if she wanted to help make me some. She was excited to make them with me. We started making the Cafe Latte ones, she asked if we could make the chocolate ones also so she could have one too. (she isn't a fan of Cafe Latte)
Some days you want to drink your shake other days you just want to eat it. 


These are quick, easy, delicious. They are great to grab on the go, I love that Shakeology has so many vitamins and nutrients, Plus they are kids safe. My kids are always stealing my shakes, and now my balls too. These no bake energy protein bites are the perfect healthy snack. 
I have to admit. I didn't come up with these myself. I found the original recipe on Fit and Funky's blog. I did modify the second recipe for Ella's liking.
