Why we love it: These protein energy balls are great when we are constantly on the go! You can use many substitutions to please your taste buds. They are packed with protein and we find they’ll help you get through those 2PM lows.

3 cups gluten free rolled oats-substitution is any old fashioned oats
½ cup vanilla protein powder
1 cup peanut butter (can substitute with any type of nut butter)
½ pure maple syrup-substitution is honey

¼ cup chocolate chips (optional)
Instructions:
- In a large mixing bowl, mix your oats with protein powder until combined. Add your peanut butter and syrup and mix well. Fold through your mix ins of choice.
