You may have noticed a theme with my snacks section of this site. Let’s face it – they’re mostly nut-based and they’re mostly balls. The  amount of snack recipes I share in comparison to main dishes is pretty dismal by virtue of the fact that I’m not a big snacker.

But when it comes to nuts, seeds, and dried fruit all balled up together in an energy bite? Sign me up.

When I head out of town for a long road trip or go for a long jaunt in the mountains, I’ll often snag some balls in case I have to go more than a few hours between meals. I don’t rely on store-bought snacks, as I find they contain too much sugar and/or contain ingredients I try to avoid.

For this rendition of energy balls, I used all superfood ingredients to generate a ball that is jam packed with healthy fat, antioxidants, minerals, and all sorts of health benefits. PLUS they taste like blueberry chocolatey goodness, which is a major win in my book.

What zucchini-infused foods have you been whipping up this summer? I’ve been eating quite my share! I’ve been roasting it and sauteeing it to add to every meal – my morning scramble or frittata, and my lunch and dinner bowls. And, as you can see, I’ve been baking up paleo chocolate chip zucchini muffins as well.

Zucchini bread was always one of my favorites as a kid. I have fond memories of the homemade zucchini bread my mom used to make, and loved eating a thick slice warmed up with a hefty dollop of butter.

So I took that comforting concept and formed it into a grain-free muffin version…plus added dark chocolate chips, because: YOLO. I even go the extra mile to sprinkle the muffins with sea salt, because to me, the salty-sweet combo is pure heaven on earth for the tastebuds.
