Energy Chunks image

Quick and easy to prepare, these are a great nutrient -dense pre-workout snack for athletes. These are also good to keep in an office drawer for long days when you have no time to get out and get lunch. Hemp seeds and chia seeds are a great source of omega-3 fatty acids and fiber, the pb provides protein, and the raisins more fiber.
