Protein balls are all the rage right now.
Why?
Because they are so easy to make, fill you up, and tasty treat if you make the right ones.
I don’t have a food processor so I mix mine by hand (it’s an extra workout, right!) but use a food processor if you have one.
Anti-Aging Pro Tip
Collagen Peptides
Add a scoop of collagen to your protein balls. It easily mixes with just about everything and won’t change the flavor.
Collagen is known for its anti-aging benefits and helps promote thicker hair, stronger nails plus helps reduce wrinkles and cellulite.
It’s excellent for your joints, too.
Just read the comments on Amazon about its benefits.
