You had me at Fudge Bites.
While I might have fallen on the beachbody bandwagon lately, I was back on board when I saw this Fudge-Bites recipe posted by my Beachbody coach and friend Elena.
I’ve been looking for a good tasty snack to have on hand, especially for my hubby who DOES work out so hard. So when I saw a recipe for Fudge Bites I knew I had to try it. And I happened to have everything on hand.I made a few adaptations from the original recipe, but here is my version:
Power-Packed Crispy No-Bake Fudge Bites
Ingredients
1/2 cup peanut butter (a generous 1/2 cup measurement)
2 cups oatmeal
1/3 – 1/2 cup agave syrup
1/2 cup Kashi 7-whole grain Puffs cereal (which is what we happened to have on hand, or any “crispy rice” cereal will do the trick)
1 generous scoop of Chocolate Protein Powder (or Shakeology)
Directions
Combine oatmeal, cereal, and protein powder in a mixing bowl.
Measure out the peanut butter and put in a microwave safe bowl. Heat for 30 seconds or just until melted.
Pour over the oatmeal, cereal, protein powder mixture and combine well, adding in the agave syrup until you have a moist but crumbly mixture.
Using hands, roll the mixture into golf-ball sized balls and put on a plate or cookie sheet.
Place in the refrigerator for 30 minutes or just until firm and enjoy!
