Useful tips for Chocolate Pomegranate Protein Bites

If you want these to truly be vegan, check to make sure your chocolate chips and protein powder do not have milk or casein.

If you want these to truly be gluten-free, check to make sure your oats say GF.

For those of you going for delicious as opposed to nutritious, add some mini chocolate chips in at the end for some extra texture.
