When after-school activities follow right after school pick-up, you know the last thing you will want to pass your young athlete is a sugar-loaded donut. If your child craves something sweet, consider giving them a much better snack alternative…

The best after school Power Snack for athletes
These Peanut Butter Power Bites are a family favorite. (My husband even requested we make a batch for our next road trip!)
These are perfect for the kids to snack on before soccer practice, one of those long after school matches, and yes, even while you wait in the school pick-up lane.
What makes these Peanut Butter Power Bites even better than any other recipe you’ve tried, is the use of a specific peanut butter brand- RX Nut Butter.
Available in a variety of different nut flavors and two sizes (a single-serve pack or a full jar), at your local Walmart, this packed-with-protein, wholesome spread is made from egg-whites, nuts, and dates.
Add this to a marriage of assorted honey roasted nuts, semi-dark chocolate chips, steel-cut oats, honey, and shredded coconut, and you have a sure-fire winner!
Here’s the recipe:
