No Bake Oatmeal Protein Energy Balls

When lunch finally rolled around today I was starving! It poured outside after I got to work so unfortunately I didn't get to ride back to my apartment. Luckily, a friend from work was able to give me a ride. When I got home I made myself a quick lunch.

Whole wheat Ezekiel bread with hummus, 1/2 an avocado and Trader Joes orange "chicken." TASTY!!

I adapted the following recipe from pbfingers.com and added some extra protein powder to try to pick them up just a notch!
