No Bake Lemon Poppy Seed Energy Bites

Simple 8 ingredient energy bites that have the right balance of lemon, that doesn't over power the almond & are ready in under 10 minutes to pop into the freezer! One of my all time favorite things to have prepped are energy bites. As a mom for my toddler it is a dream to have these prepped & ready to go. Also right after working out, to be able to grab something to tide you over while on the go to the next thing!
