These matcha bites are so easy to make! Just mix everything together with a blender or processor and roll into balls. Then roll them in coconut or any other toppings of your choice-you could experiment with cacao chips, chia seeds, or crushed nuts. Refrigerate for an hour until firm, and you have a perfect tasty treat.

Not only are these matcha energy bites easy to make, but they make a powerhouse snack! The Mindful Matcha contains antioxidant rich matcha and wheatgrass, plus cordyceps mushrooms that are known for their ability to improve energy and help to reduce fatigue. Combine that the brain boosting and energizing matcha and you truly have Matcha Power Bites!

Further Food Nutritionist Commentary:

These energy bites make a delicious and healthy snack that's great for on the go or a quick breakfast. You get a lot of nutritional bang for the buck with all the ingredients in these simple to make matcha balls. The nuts provide healthy fats and protein and the flaxseeds give you heart healthy Omega 3s. And just one energy bite gives you a hefty dose of antioxidants thanks to the matcha and the wheatgrass. Plus the matcha in these power bites gives you energy and can even help you concentrate better!
