Turmeric protein balls

These lovely little protein balls are super tasty and packed with plenty of healthy ingredients, making them a great snack option between meals. The protein powder will keep you feeling full, while the applesauce brings the sweetness without loading up on sugar. Two teaspoons of turmeric may sound like a lot, but once it’s all mixed together and rolled in coconut you won’t even be able to taste it. Enjoy them as dessert or as a healthy little snack.
