Omega 3 & magnesium rich brownie energy balls
Does what it says on the tin! These energy balls are not only a great, natural source of energy but also use ingredients high in omega 3 fats and magnesium, so you can nourish yourself while feeding a craving.
For the healthy fats/omegas I used ingredients such as walnuts, chia and hemp protein, you can also add shelled hemp seeds as a topping too if you like plus dark chocolate which not many people know can be a good source of magnesium. Brands will differ due to which one you choose & also how dark regarding the chocolate coating. A basic cacao powder will be high and the one I used per 100g has around 166% of RDA magnesium (thought the RDA will differ between men & women). A few squares of 85% dark choc can be a good portion of your RDA ticked off too so I used both in this recipe. Chia seeds & cashews also contain magnesium.
