We're really into energy balls at the moment. We make up a big batch at the weekend to take to work throughout the week, and sometimes share with our colleagues too (spoiler: they're a hit in the office!).
We've decided to go with cranberry cashew balls this time around, but as long as you stick to the quantities outlined in the recipe you can go wild with flavour combinations.
We're thinking about trying chocolate orange, oatmeal and raisin and lemon and blueberry. They're all on our very long list of recipes to try out soon! Of course, don't forget to try our Peanut Butter and Raisin Energy Bites.
Here's more inspiration for simple and delicious vegan snacks.
