I think this is probably one of my most favourite savoury snack! Yes, I do also enjoy foods that do not contain chocolate…from time to time.
I love how wonderfully those crunchy golden balls full of healthful plant protein and coated with goodness ignite my metabolic fire, boost my digestive health and immune system. They also contain strong anti-inflammatory properties, help against any kind of gloominess and are super quick to make. Best of all it does not matter if you devour the entire bowl of them – there is no unhappy aftermath of feelings of guilt or unhealthy yuckiness that comes with them.
