Quinoa Protein Balls

These delicious little bites are perfect for those that want to try something new! Quinoa flakes are high in protein and fibre and are gluten-free! We found these in the cereal section of Strongs Market. Make a batch and throw them in the freezer for a quick snack anytime!

Ingredients:

Makes 24 balls

• 1.5 cups quinoa flakes

• 8 dates, pitted

• ½ cup hot water

• ¼ cup ground white chia

• ¼ cup nut butter

• 1 tbsp cocoa

• 2 tbsp honey

• 1 tsp vanilla

• ½ tsp salt

Instructions: ​

1. Add dates and hot water to a high-power blender or bullet and let them soften for a minute before you purée them.

2. In a large bowl add the puréed dates and all other ingredients. Mix thoroughly (I like to use my hands for this). Shape into small 1 inch balls and place on parchment
