Remember last week, when Stacey took #NutritionFits on the road, and visited with some of our members after their Zumba class? She gave them a chance to taste test a clean snack free of processed sugars: Chocolate Power Bites.
Well, today Stacey is here to demonstrate how you can quickly whip up a batch of these for yourself (and your family—kids love these!). Watch the video to see Stacey show you steb-by-step how to make Chocolate Power Bites, and then scroll down for a list of the ingredients. And if you’d like a chance to win a $50 Raley’s gift card, keep reading to the end of this post to find out how!
