Yesterday dawned with perfect sunshine and the smell of summer on the warm breeze. It was a Monday public holiday and the kind of day that plants a huge, giddy smile on your face and finds you skipping around with excitement about hitting the beach with great friends and a picnic.
I didn't have time to mess around. I was itching to feel my toes in the warm sand and cool surf. Quickly I grabbed the closest three ingredients and rolled them into delicious balls of bliss.
Pit dates, chop them very finely and pop them into a bowl.
With your fingers, roll a small amount of dates into a ball, pushing pistachios into the centre as you roll (also known as the fun, messy part!).
Roll pistachio/date balls in coconut shavings.
Repeat until all of the date mixture is used.
Pack bliss balls in a container and hit the beach, baby!
These bliss balls are a great source of vitamins and fibre and contain high levels of potassium, magnesium, copper and manganese to keep you glowing in the surf all summer long. Fast, fresh and simple.
Mamo scammo! I love it! Totally pop-in-the-mouth worthy!
Amazing and so simple! Hooray!
Dates are probably one of the best creations earth has ever made. These look amazing.
Love these! Love no bake as well…I'm posting my no bake balls tomorrow! Yours look so pretty and delish!
Oh, fab! The less work we have to do to create deliciousness, the better, I say! 🙂 I can't wait to check yours out.
those little treats look fabulous! i love the coconut around it.. i would probably toast them until they are supercrunchy… mhmm. i also usually make quite BIG sized power balls, i should start making them smaller, they look much nicer and are optimal for a bite sized treat!
haha, yes I thought the smaller balls might slow down my intake a little. 😉 Toasted sounds like an amazing idea!
I totally need pistachios to make this tasty nugget trio. Keep Sparkling, I'm loving your MOFO posts!
hehe, thanks Somer! I'm loving yours too!
