These Cocoa Oatmeal balls are simple to make and they are great healthy snacks or breakfast if you like, or both. 

Ingredients:
10-12 medjool dates, removed the seed and slice
1 cup oatmeal
1/3 c coconut oil
1/3 c cocoa powder
1/2 c grated coconut
1 Tsp chia seeds
1/3 c grated coconut for final coating

Toast oatmeal with 1/2 of the coconut oil over medium heat, stir occasionally until they smell fragrant and toasty. Let them cool.
