Power balls with nuts and sesame

Tahini  Sesame paste, as we can know by its name is produced from sesame seeds. I like to add it to the dishes because it adds a unique flavor to ordinary meals. In the colder months, it is worth to buy a jar of tahini because it is a healthy fat that contains calcium, magnesium, potassium or iron.

Tahini It is a source of proteins, vitamins and amino acids, which adds strength and energy. It also helps the liver and the nervous system as well as digestive system. Ideal for Middle Eastern cuisine (ex hummus, halvah or bars), you can use it as an addition to grilled vegetables and meat, and as bread spread.

Today we have new version of POWER BALLS 🙂
