Peanut Butter Blast

This is a super little recipe that was passed on to me from a amazing client and a wonderful friend (Thanks Fran!). 


I have seen lots of variations of this type of snack and I have been eager to try them all. Here is another variation that I have found to be not only super yummy but also easy to make. It's is a super post workout snack and a snack that you can have during the day to keep you from eating the junk food in the dispenser. 


There are heaps of different variations but here is the one we use and the one we are going to be issuing in our client programming. 


Ingredients:
2 cups of organic crunchy peanut butter
1 scoop of chocolate or vanilla whey protein isolate
1 cup of gluten free rice puffs (can find these in your local health food store)
1/8 to 1/4 cup of honey


Directions:
Heat up the peanut butter until it slightly melted (not runny). Stir in honey and protein powder. Once mixed, add in organic rice puffs.

Form into balls and then place in fridge to harden overnight. Note that if you prefer harder/softer peanut butter balls, you can adjust the volumes of the ingredients until your desired texture is reached. Sprinkle some coconut on top to finish.
