Protein balls are a convenient way to get a quick dose of protein, especially if you're on the go. They also satisfy your sweet tooth without going overboard on unhealthy sugars. Most protein balls recipes include some combination of raw almonds, peanut butter, sweetener, and chocolate. This provides a good balance of macronutrients and flavors, as well as plenty of antioxidants and healthy fats. Protein balls make an excellent pre-or post-workout snack or just a quick snack when you need something sweet but don't want to ruin your diet.
