mmmmm I made Tosac Reno's Power Balls today, I handed them out to the evening Boot Campers ( sorry morning and afternoon crew, I have some waiting for you) after their work out, they were a great post workout snack. Note to self, use a large food processor, I tried to get away with using my mini one, what a mess and not powerful enough. Tried my super blender, just ground the bottom up and an even bigger mess...OK so I was too lazy to walk downstairs and get it out of storage, finally I did, and boom it was done just like that! Here's the recipe,
3/4 cup dried apricots
3/4 cup pitted dates
1/2 cup sunflower seeds
1/2 cup pumpkin seeds
1/4 cup flaxseed
4 plain brown rice cakes
1/2 cup rolled oats
1 cup agave nectar
1/2 cup almond butter, slightly warmed
MIX altogether in BIG food processor, scope out about tblsp size, roll into ball, then roll into sesame seeds. I ended up with 27 balls, the recipe yields 24.
