If you’re looking for a cost-effective snack (we all know how expensive Larabars are) try these no bake energy balls. They are delicious and so easy to make. I love to eat them after I mow the lawn or exercise. Simple energy balls like these are my favorite. I keep them in the fridge so they stay nice and cold and last for about a week. 
The internet is full of Energy Balls recipes and this is the one I really like. I tweaked it slightly by adding coconut oil and cutting the amount of honey and chocolate chips. I found the original recipe too sweet for my taste.
No Bake Energy Balls
Ingredients:
I cup rolled oats
1/2 cup flax seeds
1/4 cup chocolate chips
1/2 cup peanut butter
1 tsp coconut oil
1/4 cup honey
1 tsp vanilla
Shredded coconut and chopped nuts (optional)
Directions:
I usually take about a tablespoon of the mixture and roll it into a ball using my hands. If it’s too sticky you may need to wet your hands with a little water first. Roll the balls in coconut or chopped nuts (optional). Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
