Easy and Great Tasting Protein Balls

These are the BEST protein balls! I make a batch and store them in the freezer and take one out when I need one.

500 g dates


1 cup water


200g LSA (linseed – sunflower seed – almonds)


3 scoop Chocolate protein powder


150 g desiccated coconut


2 tablespoons cacoa powder

3 tablespoons tahini

Place the dates and water in a saucepan and place over medium heat until soft and water has been evaporated. Allow the dates to cool. Place all the ingredients into a food processor and mix together until the mix comes together. Roll the mixture into balls and place onto grease proof paper and place in fridge. May I also suggest to place some in the freezer as they taste really good on a hot day!

These are gluten free, low gi, protein and omega 3!

Green Tea X50

I recently purchased this product to see what all the hype was about! I originally took just one serve a day but increased it to the two serves as suggested on the pack to help with weight loss. I was keen to see if it could live up to its promise of increased energy, as well as a detox for my insides and a way to speed up metabolism to help with weight loss. From the first day I took it I noticed how much more alert I was, even after a hard day at work! I also have noticed that I am flushing out more toxins with more visits to the ladies, which as much as its annoying I also see it as a good thing! It's too early for the feedback on weight loss but I am not really too worried about that part. All in all I am very happy with the benefits I have received so far and have found ways to incorporate the tea into my everyday routine. I purchased the multi flavor pack that has raspberry, tropical and original and don't mind the tastes of all three. The original I have mixed with my protein smoothie and it tasted great!
