Power your body through the week with no sugar added power balls

Meg Colvin is back with a killer recipe to power your body through the rest of the week.

I saw a recipe on my favorite food bloggers site for no sugar added chocolate chip cookie dough balls and decided to use the base and sort of combo this recipe with a low sugar trail mix cookie that I make. The results were perfect! I can grab a couple of these on my way to the studio and know that they’re fueling me without adding any extra sugar to my morning 🙂 I’ll save that for a Sunday night!

No sugar added power balls

1 cup raw cashews
1/2 cup organic nut butter of choice (I’m partial to cashew and almond)
1/2 c gluten free organic oats
1/4 c unsweetened coconut flakes
1/4 c or less dried fruit of choice, unsweetened (I love dried cherries!)
1/8 c sunflower seeds or pepitas, hulled
1/3 c cacao nibs
1/3 cup
1/2 tsp cinnamon (or more if you’re like me!)
1/4 tsp vanilla or 1/2 tsp vanilla powder
2 tbsp chia or hemp seeds
Dash of nutmeg
Dash of salt
