No-Bake Energy Bites
1 cup oatmeal 
1/2 cup peanut butter (or other nut butter) 
1/3 cup honey 
1 cup coconut flakes 
1/2 cup ground flaxseed 
1/2 cup mini chocolate chips 
1 tsp vanilla 


Mix ingredients together and form into bars or roll into bars.

Any ingredient can be substituted except the oatmeal and peanut. The peanut butter can, however be substituted for Nutella or other nut butters. Try mixing in chopped nuts and/or dried fruit for an added boost of energy. If your mixture seems too wet you can add more oatmeal. If your mixture is too dry you can either add more peanut butter or more honey. Chunky peanut butter can also be used and adds a nice crunch. Add a pinch of kosher or sea salt for a sweet and salty treat. So experiment and enjoy!
