No-Bake Peanut Butter Oatmeal Balls

Last week I attended a nutrition seminar at the gym and the nutritionist brought a quick and easy pre or post or workout snack.  The recipe she provided was a little sweet so I looked one for another one. This is the one I made.  The only thing I would change is using less honey. They were quite sweet at room temperature. The sweetness seemed less prominent after they had been refrigerated. Because the peanut butter is melted, I think they would hold together with less honey.

I followed the recipe as written though I didn't have mini chocolate chips so I chopped up regular size ones.

To form the balls, I used a small scooper, and rolled them in chopped almonds.

Due to the peanut butter, I wouldn't eat this before I work out, but it's good quick snack afterwards.

Deals at Target - Workout Pants and Sleep Shirts

I recently bought two pairs of great workout pants from Target. They're C9 capri cardio pants, and what I really like about them is they're just about to the knee and they're not tight at the knee. The waistband doesn't cut in, either, so I can wear them with a fitted top and not feel like there's a little extra showing! They're $24.99 full price, but I think they're worth it.

I also got some great neon v-neck sleep t-shirts on super clearance. They're on sale online for $8.48 each but in my local store they were less than six dollars. I bought three, of course!

Target is a a fun place to shop but I always find things I "desperately need". I never get out of there without paying at least the $100 cover charge. But their return policy is great and you don't even need a receipt if you paid with a credit card.
