This peanut butter ball of goodness recipe is thanks to my Sister. She is always finding fun and good recipes. I’m trying to live on the healthier side of things and since I have been on Lent and trying to not have anything with more than 10g of sugar, I decided that these would be all right to eat, since

I made this recipe for my sister and her coworker the other day for lunch. We all loved it. Of course when I cook I don’t always follow the recipe to the letter, so I will give you the recipe from the book, and then I will tell you what I did differently. I always encourage creativity when cooking!

You mostly see the other goodies in the meal, rather than the quinoa, but it is in there! See the little brown/redish specks… that’s it. Remember it’s like rice and fluffs up 3 x its size. Continue reading
