I’m on a personal mission to reduce my biscuit intake. Now there is totally nothing wrong with a biscuit or 2, but these carrot cake energy balls add in variety and nutrition. I find they really hit the spot by giving me something to munch quickly when I’m running from job to job and they are more filling than my usual biccie.
These last for 3 days in the fridge and they also freeze well so why not make a batch and get them out the freezer in the morning, ready for when you need them.

Hi Priya
These look great, looking forward to trying them
You made 3 types of energy bites on Eat Well for Less (Series 6 Episode 3) I can’t find the recipe anywhere. Would you share it please?
Yours hopefully

Hi Lindsay I’m afraid I cannot share that recipe as it belongs to the show, but it is in the new recipe book.
Thank you for getting back to me Priya.

Can you add the recipe for the Orange and Cranberry Energy Balls, from this week’s Eat Well For Less episode, please.

Loved the different flavours you made on Eat Well For Less tonight, do you have the different variation recipe’s available? I’d like to make some for my family ☺️
