Maca Energy Balls

I always wanted to make raw energy balls. 

Yes, no bake energy bites!

When you think about what they cost in some raw food stores.....so better make them yourself. 

Delicious and very easy to make! 

You need a food processor. I always borrow it from my Mum :) 

It takes only 15 minutes. GO!

70g cashews
