No-Bake Energy Bites

I found this fantastic little recipe on Pinterest (of course). It came from the GimmeSome website. She's got lots of good stuff on there, but when I saw this one, I knew it looked like something I would like!

{I would love to post a picture or two for you... but apparently I'm out of space. Thanks a lot google! I'll figure it out and get some uploaded later}

Ingredients
1 cup (dry) oatmeal (I used old-fashioned oats)
2/3 cup toasted coconut flakes
1/2 cup peanut butter
1/2 cup ground flaxseed or wheat germ
1/2 cup chocolate chips (optional)
1/3 cup honey
1 tsp. vanilla extract

Instructions

Stir all ingredients together in a medium bowl until thoroughly mixed. Let chill in the refrigerator for half an hour. Once chilled, roll into balls of whatever size you would like. (Mine were about 1" in diameter.) Store in an airtight container and keep refrigerated for up to 1 week.
Makes about 20-25 balls.
