We at Om Reset® love this Date & Pistachio Bites recipe by Julie Bernier. It is super easy and a perfect sweet treat.

Most energy balls require nut butter to bring the dough together, which is heavier for digestion.  Here we make the dough soft by heating dates on the stove with ghee…yum.  They also make great travel snacks.
