Fuel for the Finish Protein Bites

Pregnancy had me craving sweets constantly, but these protein bites are the perfect solution. Packed with protein, iron-boosting pumpkin seeds (so important during pregnancy!), and dates that are great as you get closer to labor. A treat that actually fuels you! SERVING SIZE: 18 bites

THE RECIPE: De-pit and chop the dates into small pieces and set aside. In a large bowl, combine the oats, protein powder, pumpkin seeds, dark chocolate chips, chopped dates, nut butter, and honey. Stir until a thick dough forms and all ingredients are evenly incorporated. Using your hands or a cookie scoop, roll the mixture into bite-sized balls. Place the bites in an airtight container and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to firm up. Keep stored in the fridge and grab one whenever you need a quick snack!
