Protein balls

Experimented a little and came up with these protein balls. I try to keep them in my fridge at all times for snacks and when a craving hits but I don't want to ruin my meal plan with a cookie.
2 cups of pitted dates
1 cup of unsweetened coconut
1/2 cup of chopped or slivered almonds
1 tsp of coconut oil
1 cup of natural peanut butter 

1. Chop and mash the pitted dates- use hands if needed (I use a blender for this but a food processor would work better)
2. Chop almonds 
3. Put all ingredients in a bowl and mix together. Use hands to knead everything together thoroughly. 
4. Have a little taste. Add appropriate ingredient that is lacking.
5. Roll into 1" balls and refrigerate 

Enjoy!
