Raw Sunflower Protein Bites

These were created on a whim when I wanted "dessert" yet needed a little protein post-trail run.
Simple and fast, almost anything can be thrown into the food processor with enough delicious sunflower seed butter and banana and still taste good.  (I have yet to make a raw bean cookie; I'll let you know how that turns out).

I popped these into the freezer to firm up before eating; you can remove them right away and enjoy as is or roll them in additional cacao powder for a prettier and more nutritional snack.
