More balls!!!

I had another go at making some protein balls over the weekend. They have the same basic ingredients as my first ones, which you can check out here, but I put a new twist on it. I added chocolate and walnuts and used peanut butter instead of almond. I'm crazy like that, I like to switch up my nuts. Variety is the spice of life!

Chocolate Peanut Oat Protein Balls

Ingredients

2 cups rolled oats

1 1/2 cups natural peanut butter

1/3 cup agave nectar

3/4 cup coconut flakes

1/2 cup hemp seeds

1/2 cup cocoa powder

1 scoop Original VEGA WHO

1/2 cup walnuts 

Directions:

Combine all dry ingredients and stir until evenly distributed. Add the remaining ingredients and mix until fully combined. Refrigerate for 30 minutes then shape into balls. 

They will keep for a week, but I doubt you will keep them that long. Lol I sure didn't. I made about 20 but it depends on how big you like your balls. I was recently asked why I didn't make them into bars? My response was "then I can't get people to taste my balls!" LOL Its the joke that keeps on giving.

Tornado Salad

I made 2 of these salads one night after a killer workout. I didn't feel bad because it was mostly mixed greens, but I topped it with my Mexican Fried Quinoa with Lentils plus some cucumber, salsa and hemp seeds. Nutritious and filling dinner.

Homemade brown rice sushi

I threw together some poorly rolled brown rice sushi rolls. Personally I like white rice sushi the best, but I don't eat white rice very much. Sorta special occasion rice nowadays. I had limited sushi ingredients so I used cucumber, avocado, mixed greens, veganaise and chili flakes. Super yummy, although next time I'd opt out of the veganaise. It was good but unnecessary. 

Have you joined Pinterest? I just joined this week and am fully addicted. Its a cool way to organize all the things you see online. You can create boards, like a cork board that you pin stuff too. I'm enjoying it thus far. Check it out!

Peace
