Recipe: No Bake Energy Balls

My husband is sort of a health nut. Which is sort of annoying because he's always wanting to eat healthy + work out, etc. when I would rather dive into a cheeseburger and fries most nights. But its probably a good things so I don't  indulge in a cheeseburger and fries every night. You know what I mean? Balance, people. That's what marriage is all about.

ANYWAYS, David's friend, Travis, is sort of a health nut too and he got us on to these energy//protein balls. They're addictive and we make a batch every week to eat prior to and post- workout.

Yes, I will share the recipe with you!

  1. Love this, Caroline! My husband and I are the opposite of you guys. I'm a health nut and he just wants to eat something delicious. It works well when I can cook a delicious, healthy meal. But when I'm gone I swear he'll eat cheese and crackers, mac and cheese or Taco Bell bean burritos for days!

    I'm all out of raw honey, but when I get more I'm definitely making these!
