PROTEIN PB BITES
These little bites are similar to a Reese's peanut butter cup, but filled with body loving collagen, additional protein and heart supporting nuts making this "treat" a treat for the body too. It's a quick and sweet way to add healthy ingredients to the diet and they are easy to make. My kids LOVE them...as well as the grandparents (yep...they please the older generation too 😆)
