These energy bites are one of our go-to snacks! We love to meal prep at our house to save time though the week. One thing we like to keep on hand is healthy snacks. It makes it so much easier to make healthy choices when your healthy snacks are already prepared.
I’m also a huge fan of recipes that don’t require a ton of ingredients! If you want to know how to make this quick and easy recipe keep reading. You can be done with this whole thing in 20 minutes or less. There are only 5 Steps required.

I know some people have allergies, so you can try to switch out ingredients as needed. I recommend figuring out your perfect mix of ingredients and really making this snack your own!
