Protein Buckeyes

Here are treats for your arsenal. I truly LOVE chocolate; however, I realized the amount of sugar and preservatives that are in the chocolate bars, cookies, and desserts that I ate regularly. Don’t get me wrong, I still partake in those things occasionally so this is why I keep snacks and sweets on me to not fall into the trap. You will enjoy these Protein Buckeyes.
