Peanut Butter Balls

So these are cute and delicious and you can add anything to them: dried fruit of your choice, choc chips, a crunchy cereal. the base is really the oats, PB, and honey!
For my first batch I added raisins, and grape nuts! it is what we had in the cabinets!
Here is the recipe!

2 cups Rolled Oats
1/2 cup Chocolate Chips
2/3 cup Coconut Flakes (unsweetened)
1/2 cup Peanut Butter
1/3 cup Honey
1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
1/4 teaspoon Salt

In a large bowl, mix together the Oats, Chocolate Chips, and Coconut. Add the Peanut Butter, Honey, Vanilla, Salt, and mix well until evenly combined. Chill in the refrigerator for an hour then roll out balls about an inch in diameter. Store in an airtight container.

Mini Omletts muffins

Well the kids love it! i am actually surprised!! I think they would taste better with milk instead of olive oil but they both loved them!
I got the recipe from the chew! and I made them last night and they were very convenient to throw in the microwave this morning! I think you can add whatever you have in the fridge that you think you kids will enjoy! I added left over bread rolls that that i chopped up tiny. so in one muffin they had bread, cheese and veggies!! Made me happy to think he had some nutrients in his body before school!! And the baby also really enjoyed them!! she is also full of the good stuff!!
