Shakeology Balls or (aka Shakeology No-Bake Cookies)

This recipe is from Chalene Johnson and they are TO DIE FOR! They end up being the size of a small egg. They are around 80 calories per ball with 7 grams protein.  They're not only filling for a snack, but soooo good!

8 Tablespoons PB2  - add water to the PB2 until it’s a creamy consistency (not sure what PB2 is, see below)
3 Tablespoons Natural Peanut butter  - more PB if you like them creamier (Naturally More is my favorite brand and can be found at Walmart)
1/2 Cup Shakeology
3 Tablespoons Raw Honey or Organic Blue Agave (natural sweetener)
1/4 or 1/2  Cup Instant Oatmeal or Old Fashioned Oats

Mix all in a large bowl and spoon out small (egg-size) portions. Put in freezer. Take out when ready to eat.. they thaw quick!

PB2 is a highly compressed Peanut Butter powder.  The peanuts have been pressed so much that the oil has been removed and all that is left is a powder.  It is much lower in calories (about 25 per serving) and is a GREAT addition to protein shakes, Shakeology or for adding to recipes that call for peanut butter.  For more information, or to order you can go HERE!
