Protein Brownie Bites

Protein Brownie Bites

You're going to want to hide these from your kids (or make a second batch).  They are SO good and such a perfect packed lunch treat, snack on the go, or night-cap. 

I love these because of their balanced macros and delicious taste.  Perfect for that time of the month where you're a little extra hungry and your sweet tooth is a little extra loud.
