No Bake Energy Bites

My bestie found this recipe on Pinterest and we love it.  I tweaked it a little bit, but love it all the same!

Ingredients:
1 cup rolled oats
1/2 cup Natural Peanut Butter, Almond Butter or Hempnut Butter
1/3 cup of Agave
1 cup of unsweetened coconut flakes
1/2 cup of ground flax
1/2 cup of non dairy mini chocolate chips
1 tsp vanilla

Mix together in a bowl and chill for a while in the fridge.  Roll into balls and you can refrigerate or freeze them.  Great for after school snacks!
