Anyone out there remember GORP? Good ole raisins and peanuts? My sister insists is "Gobs" of raisins and peanuts but that just sounds weird. If you follow me on Instagram, you'll know that I’ve got a thing for energy bites.
I keep them in the fridge so I’ve got a quick, energizing snack ready to grab ‘n go when I’m on the run.
If you love peanut butter and crave healthy-ish snacks, this bite is for you. It’s filled with wholesome ingredients and the peanut butter, flax and oats make it a snack that with staying power. A sprinkle of chocolate chips is optional (but I suggest you add them -- it really). Here’s the EASY recipe. Snack on friends!
