The Best Way To Snack
Snacking is hard because it can easily lead to succumbing to convenience, and I think we all know that often times convenience ends up being a less healthy option than what we would go for if we had planned well. So…for us, the best way to snack is to meal prep something that is satisfying and gives us a little pick-me-up. These fig and date bliss balls are exactly that! They’re easy to make, and when the most convenient option is a snack we have already made, it wins every time! Take unhealthy options off the table by prepping ahead of time so when hunger strikes, you already have a game plan!
Easy Peasy
These fig and date bliss balls are super easy to make. You just toss everything in a food processor and let the machine do the work. It takes a few minutes to break down all of the ingredients and get to the texture that allows you to roll them into balls, but you can have this snack prepped in 10 minutes or less! Then, you are all set and a healthy option is ready to go in the fridge! Pack a ball or two with you as you head out the door!
