Recipe: Moringa Energy Balls

I had the pleasure to spend this beautiful New Years Day in Sayulita, Mexico to give a talk about healing super foods, along with touching upon topics such as the importance of alkalizing your body and finding a balance within the foods we eat and our emotional bodies. During this talk I offered some raw energy balls that were packed full of a local ingredient, moringa, among other goodies. Below is the recipe to make these delicious, energy packed snacks:
