    These Peanut Butter Oat Flax bites MUST come with a disclaimer.....they are HIGHLY ADDICTIVE!

    These Peanut Butter Flax Balls take minutes to prepare and are crazy healthy!

     Yes, before you say anything, they are natural, filled with protein and fiber but it's really easy to eat the whole tray (not that I would know from experience 🙂 )  I made these for my latest workshop at the Bar Method Montclair and everyone loved them.  You can't even taste the flax at all and just the little amount of chocolate chips give that little extra crunch.
