These energy bites not only hit the spot for something sweet, they’re also nutrient-dense and hit all your macros, thanks to the healthy fats from the coconut and macadamias or cashews, the carbohydrates from the oats, and the protein of the chia and hemp seeds. If you choose to add an algae powder such as spirulina or chlorella, they become even more supercharged with antioxidant and anti-inflammatory powers.
