Energy balls


Last year in vegan mofo I made energy bars. Lately I made energy balls, which is basically the same thing but in a ball shape. Only, it's not the same thing when it's a ball. Shape matters.

Energy balls

easiest recipe ever!

2 cups walnuts
2 cups soft dates (about 15 large dates)
1 tbs ground flaxseed

Just blend everything together and shape into beautiful balls.
I rolled some in coconut (in the photo) and some in carob powder. The carob balls were more chocolaty and very tasty.

Keep refrigerated or frozen.

For some reason, I can't stop thinking of the Alec Baldwin SNL skit about his Schweddy Balls :) http://www.nbc.com/saturday-night-live/video/clips/nprs-delicious-dish-schweddy-balls/2846/
