Bliss balls are easy to make and almost impossible to mess up. You can throw a bunch of healthy ingredients into a food processor, and you’ll have a healthy snack in less than 15 minutes. We were inspired by Veggie Desserts holiday twist on bliss balls and had to make some to get into the holiday spirit!
While we don’t cook as much as we used to, on the rare occasion that we do, the dishes we make are simple and quick. With bliss balls, you can pretty much throw in any healthy ingredients you have at home.
You can change out any of these ingredients (just make sure you have a wet ingredient like almond milk, something sweet like maple syrup or almond butter, and any dry ingredients you want to put in) and even throw in some superfoods like chia seeds.
We recently made Spirulina Bliss Balls that were just as tasty and easy to make as these snowmen.
