Pink Pitaya protein balls

Like us, you may feel like your living your life constantly on the go!  Here is one of our tasty nutritious snacks that we love to indulge, as a substitute to a homemade dessert. We are currently obsessed with Pink Pitaya Powder, there is an endless amount of protein in these cute little pink bliss balls. They are quick to make and can be stored for a few days while you are on a business trip, travelling or just crazy busy at work and need a snack. So here it goes…
