Peanut Butter Balls Recipe

Peanuts are rich in healthy mono-unsaturated fats, which help promote healthy cholesterol levels and good cardiovascular health. This legume also delivers vitamin E, folate, niacin and manganese. Eating a few Brazil nuts daily will supply you with a good dose of the antioxidant mineral selenium, which is needed for good tissue elasticity. It also acts to reduce cell damage from free radicals and may play an important role in reducing the risk of skin cancer.

Makes: approx. 12 balls
