These Matcha Energy Bites are the perfect addition to your weekend meal prep.  I like to make a batch and leave them in the fridge all week long as a convenient, grab-and-go, whole food snack.

  • Using a tablespoon, scoop out balls of mixture. Roll between your hands to create evenly sized balls (just like rolling a meatball) and place on a rimmed baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

    Do you have any suggestions for a coconut replacement for those of us who are allergic to coconut? Thank you!

      You can add another dried fruit, a nut or just skip it. They would still be great!

    What difference does it make if the nuts are raw or roasted…?
