Raw Balls
In my quest to eat healthier I have decided to try something new! That's right! New!
Raw eating is really popular right now and I thought I might try my hand at it. So I came up with my own version of "RAW BALLS" and I'm gonna call them Potassium Plungers :) They are full of potassium which is essential for the proper functioning of the heart, kidneys, muscles, nerves, and digestive system.
Prepare to eat healthy...

Put pecans, walnuts, chia seeds, sesame seeds, sunflower seeds, pumpkin seeds in a food processor until chopped. Then add carob or cocoa powder. Pulse to mix.
